Tagaytay
If you're looking for a colder place near metro Manila (which is the capital of the
Philippines), Tagaytay is the right place for you.
You can reach the beautiful Tagaytay with a short 2-3 hour car ride from the capital.
This spot is known for its delicious food like bulalo, or bone marrow, and halayang ube,
purple yam jam. The best place for eating these foods is at the Tagaytay Picnic Grove
where you can breathe the fresh air and take in the famous sight of the Taal volcano,
one of the most popular and active volcanoes in the Philippines. While there, if you want
to see the lake, just ask a tricycle driver outside the Picnic Grove, and they will take you
on a scenic ride. If you are planning to stay overnight, there are many resorts and
hotels, as well.
