NASA panghuling bahagi na tayo ng ating serye ng coolest places in the Philippines. Sini-share ko ang guide na ito para sa mga mahilig magbyahe ngayong tag-init sa mga lugar na siyempre naman ay may kalamigan.
Masarap siyempreng mamasyal sa mga lugar na malamig at hindi maalinsangan.
Nariyan din ang Lipa City sa Batangas, isa sa dalawang siyudad na malamig ang klima na kay lapit lamang sa Metro Manila. Ang isa pa dito ay ang Tagaytay.
Ang Lipa City ay may land area na 20,940 hectares and an elevation of 1,025 ft. above sea level.
Ang klima dito ay generally cool. Mayroon itong invigorating climate throughout the year.
Ang Lipa ay kilala bilang the “third coolest city” next to Baguio City and Tagaytay City.
Ang average yearly temperature sa Lipa ay nasa 23°C. Tropical with uneven rainfall all year around.
