PhotoHunt: Original
Posted in Daily Thoughts, photography, Photohunt on 09/29/2007 04:47 pm by dianeMy first time to post as a photo hunter.
This is the original Mayon Volcano and the Cagsawa Ruins that can be seen here in my hometown Albay. I am so proud to say that I am living near this amazing view.
In 1814, Mt. Mayon, in the province of Albay, the Philippines, erupted and devastated the surrounding communities. This is what remained of the Cagsawa church, whose bellfry has remained standing as a mute testimony of the enormous disaster caused by flowing lava. Some 1,200 people sought sanctuary in the church, thinking that they would be saved from the fury of Mayon volcano. All of them died. One could imagine that, in their last moment, they struggled to climb to this bellfry as others below tried to pull them down. It must be a tragic, horrifying experience. ~http://www.hawaii.edu/cps/maycag.html
