Considered as the alternative Summer Capital of the Philippines is Tagaytay, a multi-awarded high-altitude city in Cavite, just 55 kilometers away from Manila. The relative cold temperature, averaging 22 degrees centigrade, provides travelers a pleasant experience, made even better by the sight of the enchanting Taal Volcano and Taal Lake. The cool breeze in the city has made it ideal for various sports, family or company picnics, conferences, and spiritual recollections and retreats. Because of the many congregations maintaining retreat houses in the city, some people have referred to Tagaytay as the "Vatican" of the Philippines.
