I recently read about this detail in the history of Tagaytay and found it interesting that President Quezon became very interested in the area during the 1930s or perhaps before that.

&#x200B;

From what I understand, Quezon was already familiar with Baguio and often visited the city because of its cooler climate and its benefits to his health. 

&#x200B;

Baguio was already known as the country’s main mountain retreat at that time.

&#x200B;

However, after visiting Tagaytay, Quezon became fascinated with the place and saw its potential as another important destination, similar to Baguio.

&#x200B;

Of course, one of the obvious reasons was its location. Tagaytay was much closer to Manila and easier to access compared to Baguio.

&#x200B;

But aside from its proximity, I'm really curious..... what did Quezon see in Tagaytay that made him appreciate it so much or perhaps admired it?

&#x200B;

Was it because of the view of Taal Volcano and the lake?

&#x200B;

Was it the landscape, climate, or peaceful atmosphere?

&#x200B;

Or did he see a bigger potential for Tagaytay as a tourism and development center?

&#x200B;

Since Baguio already had a strong reputation during that period....

&#x200B;

What made Tagaytay stand out enough that Quezon became a fan, personally and also wanted to help develop it?

&#x200B;

Would love to know your insights and thoughts on this.

What made Tagaytay special that President Quezon became a fan of the place?
