Its boundary line passes through the top of the country’s highest peak, the Mt. Apo. On the north, Davao del Norte bound it, while on the east, partly by Davao del Norte and the Davao Gulf.

The city’s strategic location makes it the center of trade not only in the Southern Mindanao region or the whole of Mindanao but also in the East ASEAN Growth Area (EAGA).

Davao City is very accessible. As your gateway to the Philippine South, it has regular air, sea, and land linkages to major points in the country. It is one (1) hour and 40 minutes away from Manila (the country’s capital) by plane and only 40 minutes away from Cebu City. It has 4 times weekly flights to Singapore and twice weekly flights to Manado Indonesia.

Philippine Eagle Center is located in Malagos, Baguio District in Davao City. The Philippine Eagle Center (PEC) is a park located some 45 minutes away from the heart of Davao City. The PEC is home to many Philippine Eagles saved from poachers, and many younger ones bred in captivity. The most popular of which is Pag-asa, the first Philippine Eagle successfully bred in captivity. Many other animals also call the PEC their home. Unlike other zoological parks, the animals are in large cages that mimic their natural habitats.
