The imposing Mt Mayon, from any angle in Albay looks picturesque but there are places that’s more conducive for gawking at its glory.  This 14-hectare Sumlang Lake used to be a carpet of lilies until the village residents decided to clean it up three years ago and uncovered its placid beauty. They saw the potential of its unobstructed view of Mt. Mayon as the backdrop for this scenic lake. To this date, it is a rising destination in Albay, enjoying 300–500 visits on weekends.

To date aside from the rattan outdoor furniture, guests can rent the rafts to explore the lake. Prices differ on the size. The small ones for Php 25/hour and the larger ones can cost Php 200/hour that is good for 8–10pax. Kayaks and pedal-boats are also available to rent.  Read More:   https://www.ironwulf.net/2016/07/17/albay-sumlang-lake/
