Cagayan de Oro
Cagayan de Oro, located along the north-central coast of Mindanao, Philippines, encompasses a diverse topography that significantly influences its terrain. The city spans approximately 488.86 square kilometers (188.75 square miles), featuring a 25-kilometer (16 miles) coastline along Macajalar Bay. The landscape transitions from a narrow coastal plain to rolling hills and steeply inclined mountains as one moves inland. The Cagayan River, originating from the Kalatungan Mountain Range in Bukidnon, traverses the city before emptying into the bay, carving valleys and contributing to the area's varied elevation. This diverse terrain not only shapes the city's natural beauty but also impacts urban development and land use patterns.
