A little about the Geography of Luzon

Sorsogon, in the Bicol Region of Luzon Island, is home to Bulusan, an active stratovolcano, which has erupted at least 13 times since 1886, most recently in 1988.
Bulusan Volcano is located at the south central part of Sorsogon Province. It covers a surface area roughly 400 sq. km.(approx 248 sq miles) and towers to about 1559 m. (approx.5,114 ft.) above sea level. The volcano forms part of the Bicol Volcanic Chain, which stretches from Camarines Norte in the north to Sorsogon in the south. The chain, sometimes called volcanic belt, is composed of active and geologically young volcanoes most probably related to the Philippine Trench.
