RUINS OF CAGSAWA
Cagsawa is one of the best places to see the Mayon volcano. The ruins of this 16th century baroque church are a reminder of the volcano's biggest eruption, which occurred on February1, 1814, killing 1,200 people. It destroyed the villages of Cagsawa, Camalig and Budiao, covering them with a thick layer of ash and lava, washing away everything in its path. Many souvenir stores surround the site and distort it a little and the ruins are not very well preserved. However it remains a rare and interesting place of history.
