Taal Volcano

Lake Taal is a huge volcanic crater that has filled up with water and has become a lake. Within the lake, other eruptions have occurred producing more craters and micro lakes.

Taal Volcano, a National Geological Monument, has twenty six recorded eruptions since 1572. Named as the Killer Volcano, its most devastating eruption occured in 1754, when it buried the towns of Lipa, Sala, Tanauan and Taal with lava. On Taal's 1911 eruption, one thousand three hundred and forty four lives were claimed, leaving only a puppy as the survivor.

Tagaytay

This is the time of the year where families get together to relax and enjoy the summer season. One of the most visited cities during this season is Tagaytay, where you experience the cool winds like that of Baguio minus the miles on your car guage, not to mention the ever expensive gas...

Tagaytay is located about 70 km south of Manila and was once intended to become an alternative to the summer town of Baguio. The sprawling town offers visitors superb views of the Taal Volcano and the volcanic island with its crater lake, but only if the weather is clear. The volcano is one of the smallest and most dangerous in the world.
