Soaring at almost 8,000 feet above sea level. It is standing at the center of Albay’s three cities and fifteen municipalities. Mayon Volcano’s name was derived from the local word “Magayon,” which means beautiful.

 

Cagsawa Ruins Park

This park is a memorial to the 1,200 townspeople of Cagsawa who died during the eruption of February 1, 1814. One way to enjoy the stunning view of Mayon Volcano is from this park. The bell tower of the destroyed Church of Cagsawa, is probably one of the most photographed man-made structure in the country, with Mayon in the background.

Lignon Hill is known as the city’s protector. Atop of the hill lies a circular viewing deck after a long and winding road. This 156-meters hill provides a scenic view of the city, the Albay Gulf and the Mayon Volcano. During the times of the volcano’s eruption and typhoons, Lignon Hills has blocked the flow of lava and lahar protecting the city from unimaginable destruction.
