Description

this is in Lipa City,Batangas,Philippines.I took the picture from the San Sebastian Cathedral, Lipa City and I was at the top of the bell tower in 2000. this is facing the North and Manila is about 45 miles to the North East http://www.pinoytravelblog.com/travel-destinations/batangas/645/san-sebastian-cathedral-lipa-city Lipa City was destroyed by Mount Pinatubo but rebuilt in the current location.The city's location, in a valley located between two mountains - Mount Malarayat and Mount Makulot - makes it a low risk area. These two mountains serve as a wind breaker in times of typhoon. Mount Makulot at the western portion also served as shield of the city in times of eruption of Taal Volcano. this is where I stayed on the 4 trips to the Philippines.the climate is much better than Manila. in the evening it is very pleasant I took it with a small camera and scanned the picture.I would have loved to of had a digital camera with me but I did not thanks for viewing and any comments
