the magnificent Taal Lake and its active island volcano, Tagaytay
is a picturesque city offering a panoramic view of one of
the rarest known sights in the world the smallest and lowest
volcano in the world, Taal Volcano. Sitting serenely on Taal
Lake, the volcano offers a receptive sight considering the
violent history of past eruptions. In Ripley's Believe It

Manila Bay. Tour heads on to the old walled city of Intramuros
