2 hours drive from Manila, and you can reach some really beautiful places! This visit was to Taal volcano.
Known as one of the smallest volcanoes in the world, and the only one which is an island in an island in an island.
To get to Taal, you can take a shared FX from Star Mall (Ortigas) or a bus from Cubao. Stay overnight at Tagaytay and a boat to Taal in the morning.

Luzon in Philippines is an island, Taal volcanic hill is an island itself in Luzon in between Taal lake, and inside the volcanic hill crater is now a lake with a very tiny island :)
The hike uphill is easy.. just pray it's not too sunny. We went on a really hot day!
There are horse rides also available when you enter the hill, but I personally did not like how they keep the horses.. And the hike is fun! Reach uphill, and treat yourself to a Buko (coconut) :)
The view from the top, is beautiful! You could also play some golf there and try to hit the ball into the lake ;)
