Mount Cabuyao

關於

Mount Cabuyao (Ilocano: Bantay Cabuyao, Tagalog: Bundok Cabuyao), alternatively spelled as Kabuyao, is a mountain in the Philippines located in the municipality of Tuba in the province of Benguet. Its summit, rising to more than 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) above sea level, overlooks the city of Baguio. It is commonly mistaken as Mount Santo Tomas, a taller mountain just beside it.

Due to its high elevation, several communications companies constructed relay stations and radars at the summit. A private observatory and AA radar station, once operated by the US Armed Forces stationed in the country, is also located here. A water catchment area was constructed to supply water to the City of Baguio and nearby towns. A small community of farmers live at the top of the mountain. A town hall and a school was built for them by the local government.
