Tagaytay, Mountain city in Cavite, Philippines

Tagaytay sits on a ridge at 610 meters altitude, offering clear views of Taal Lake and its volcano through the year.

The area served as a refuge during the 1896 Philippine Revolution, where fighters used the dense forests and mountain paths for protection.

The local population of 85,330 residents maintains traditional agricultural practices, cultivating pineapples and coffee on the mountain slopes.

The temperature remains consistently lower than surrounding regions, making it a preferred destination for visitors seeking relief from Manila's heat.

Mount Sungay, reaching 709 meters above sea level, stands as the highest elevation point in the entire Cavite province.
