Mayon Volcano, the Philippines

Currently nominated as a World Heritage Site, Mayon is regarded as sacred by the locals due to its place in ancient mythologies, and it’s also a major tourist destination. Of course, another reason why it is so noteworthy is due to the frequency in which it erupts, sometimes with deadly consequences. A big eruption in 1814 led to the deaths of more than 1,200 people, while an eruption in 2018 required the evacuation of 56,000 people who lived in the surrounding communities.
