Tagaytay Philippines overlooks the Taal Volcano. Tagaytay and Taal are not on the same island but because of positioning and elevation Tagaytay is on a ridge which provides the perfect spot to gaze outward across the Taal lake and take in the enchanting view of the lush green scenery provided by Taal Island which inhabits one of Earth's most powerful natural wonders; Taal Volcano which happens to be the smallest volcano in the world.
