It was just a Quick trip to Legazpi, an overnight trip but it's worth it. Let me share with you the top places to visit when you get there.



 The Famous Mayon Volcano and Cagsawa Ruins

How to Get There?


Use your travel weapon, "ASK". We asked several locals just to make sure that we are on the right path. Luckily they gave us one answer. You can take a jeepney at the public market going to Guinsiliban. Mind you, you'll see jeepneys everywhere. Ask the drver to drop you off at Cagsawa Ruins and from there, just take a tricycle.



You might be wondering why you often hear Cagsawa ruins and Mayon Volcano together, but it's totally different. Cagsawa Ruins are the remnants of an 18th century Franciscan church, the Cagsawa church.  It was destroyed during the most destructive eruption of the nearby Mayon Volcano in 1814 and only the church tower remains. It is catually considered as a perfect spot because you can view the volcano from the Cagsawa Ruins. Its aesthetic scenery and the perfect cone makes a picturesque backdrop for photography. But unfortunately, it wasn't a good weather so we weren't able to see the perfect cone. But we surely had fun roaming around the place, praying and shopping.
