Canlaon, Negros Occidental

Canlaon is a mountainous city in Negros Occidental, Philippines. Canlaon volcano, an active volcano several kilometers from the city proper, is the most prominent place there These photos I took last year, June 05, 2011.

It's a "sleepy" place, I did not see big structures there. But one can see and feel the imposing presence of the volcano from the city proper.


Various views of the volcano. My bus was going from Canlaon to Bacolod City then.



Hills and small mountains, winding road from San Carlos City to Canlaon.


Kaingin farming, or slash-burn-land clearing, converting lands from forest to non-forest use, usually various agricultural crops, is visible on some parts the road.


It was my first visit to Canlaon actually. Glad that I made that trip.
