    Tagaytay City is located in the Province of Cavite, on the island of Luzon, approximately 55 km (34 mi) south of Manila.

    It lies within 120° 56' longitude and 14° 6' latitude and overlooks Manila Bay on the North, 
    Taal volcano and Taal lake on the south 
    and Laguna Bay on the east.



    Legend has it that the word Tagaytay came from "taga" meaning to cut and "itay" which means father. A father and son were said to be on a wild boar hunt when the animal they were chasing turned and attacked them. As the boar charged towards the old man, the son cried "taga itay!". The boy's repeated shout reverberated in the alleys of the ridge. Heard by the residents, hunters and wood gatherers, the cries became subject of conversation for several days in the countryside. In time, the place where the shouts came from became known as TAGAYTAY.
