GREEN AND SERENE Farmer’s Table Tagaytay facade
People frequent Tagaytay for many reasons. Only an hour-and-a-half drive from Manila, the holiday town is an easier-to-visit version of Baguio City. Incredibly alike, both are surrounded by forests of pine trees and open grasslands and have this neither-too-hot-nor-too-cold weather, perfect for relaxation. The similarity between the two is so striking that Tagaytay is considered the “Second Summer Capital of the Philippines.”
Part-Cavite, part-Batangas, but really a component city in the province of Cavite, Tagaytay is also famous for its breathtaking scenery and rolling terrain. On a high altitude, it sits on a ridge, overlooking Taal Lake and its volcano island. Manila folks, like me, always look forward to a road trip to Tagaytay, which sometimes sits on a cloud of mist, like a fairy tale town.
