A fine old church built in Spanish times to replace the one in San Nicolas that was destroyed by a volcanic eruption. The front has a neoclassical facade with lots of columns; the back of the building has high windowless stone walls and looks more like a medieval European fortress than a church. A sign in front of it says it is the largest Catholic church in Asia.
The Minor Basilica and Parish of Saint Martin of Tours, commonly known as Taal Basilica, is a minor basilica in the town of Taal, Batangas, within the Archdiocese of Lipa in the Philippines. It is considered to be the largest church building in the country, and the largest Augustinian church, standing 88.6 meters (291 ft) long and 48 meters (157 ft) wide. Martin of Tours is the patron saint of Taal, whose feast is celebrated every November 11.

Gregorio Agoncillo Mansion
The stately American colonial “White House” contains a collection of beautiful hardwood antique furniture and personal artifacts. The house is in very good shape. It is preserved by Don Gregorio Agoncillo Foundation in honor of Gregorio’s daughter, Corazon Agoncillo. It seems closed but when you stand in front of the gate long enough, a caretaker appears, let you in and guides you through the house.
Heritage home owned by Gliceria Marella Villavicencio's family, and a site of a meeting of the La Liga Filipina with Jose Rizal and Andres Bonifacio. Open by prior reservation.
