The extreme ashfall that painted ‘lifeless grey’ image in Tagaytay City shocked netizens.
The city in the province of Cavite, overlooking Taal Lake providing vantage points of Taal Volcano, is one of the country’s most popular tourist destinations.
But the ash that fell on its wide area turned the scenic view of Tagaytay City into grey.
Pine trees that normally look luscious green during this season now look ‘lifeless’.
The effects of ashfall from the dark volcanic ash spewed by the volcano on Sunday afternoon can be seen in the series of photos uploaded by Jeroma Abuan.
Many areas of the city witnessed thick ash particles covering landscapes, roads, roofs and trees.
This, as hundreds of tourists are stranded in hotels. Motorists were also warned of slippery roads due to the thick ash covering the roads.
