The Magnificient Mayon Volcano in Albay

The famous Mayon volcano is one of the most visited site in Albay, province. One of the reasons why we keep coming back to see the famous Mayon Volcano because of it's perfect cone shape. Seeing in Mayon on real is one of the most best experience we had. We are lucky at that time because it was cool sunny day. There is less cloud around the area. Rising 2,462 meters (8,077 ft) from the shores of the Gulf of Albay. Volcano is made up of layers of lava alternating with cinder and ashes. The Mayon volcano is active volcano. PHILVOLCS or Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology closely monitor the activity on the Mayon.
