volcano, Philippines

Mayon Volcano, active volcano, southeastern LuzonPhilippines, dominating the city of Legaspi. Called the world’s most perfect volcanic cone because of the symmetry of its shape, it has a base 80 miles (130 km) in circumference and rises to 8,077 feet (2,462 metres) from the shores of Albay Gulf

Popular with climbers and campers, the volcano is the centre of Mayon Volcano National Park (21 square miles [55 square km]). There are large abaca plantations on its lower slopes. There have been more than 30 eruptions recorded since 1616. An eruption in 1993 caused 79 deaths. Subsequent eruptions in 2000, 2006, 2009, 2014, and 2018 forced tens of thousands of people in nearby villages to evacuate. In December 2006, rains from powerful Typhoon Durian caused mudslides and floods at the foot of the volcano that killed more than 1,000 people. Its most destructive eruption was in 1814, when the town of Cagsawa was buried and approximately 1,200 people were killed

Mount Mayon, one of the Philippines' most active volcanoes, is as renowned for its beauty as it is feared for its destructiveness. Admired for its symmetry and classic cone shape, the volcano was named for a mythological fairy.
