Sleeping Lion Hill

The view that holds everyone’s attention in Legazpi is of Mt Mayon, but there’s another beautiful panorama many visitors miss: the pretty port of Legazpi itself. Legazpi Blvd, behind Embarcadero, leads directly to Sleeping Lion Hill, located near the waterfront. Its rump-ish rise does bear a vague resemblance to a snoozing cat. The 30-minute ascent goes up a rough path and culminates in a great view of the waterfront and nearby islands.
