It is the fourth highest mountain in the Philippines and has an approximate height of 2,899 meters.〔 It is located between Malaybalay City and the municipalities of Lantapan, Impasugong, Sumilao, and Libona. The name ''"Kitanglad"'' was derived from a legend that there was once a great flood that submerged the native lands of Bukidnon and only the tip of the mountain, the size of a ''"tanglad"'' (lemon grass), remained visible (''"kita"'' in Visayan). It is considered as an ancestral domain of several old cultural communities like the Bukidnons, Higaonons and Talaandigs. Mount Kitanglad was proclaimed a protected area under the natural park category through Presidential Proclamation 896 dated October 24, 1996. On November 9, 2000, Mt. Kitanglad finally became a full-pledge protected area when Congress approved R.A. 8978 also known as the Mt. Kitanglad Range Protected Area Act of 2000. In 2009, Mount Kitanglad Range Natural Park (MKRNP) was declared as an ASEAN Heritage Park. ==See also== *List of protected areas of the Philippines *List of Southeast Asian mountains *List of inactive volcanoes in the Philippines 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mount Kitanglad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
