As mentioned in Wikipedia, it is one of the largest lepidopterans, endemic to the forests of Asia. Seeing it in person is quite elating, as it is my first time seeing such a large creature. I hope it mated successfully.

Tagaytay is sadly not a forest anymore, but still has a lot of trees, greenery, and nature. Hopefully it stays that way amidst modernisation pressures.
