It commemorates the landing of American liberation forces on January 31, 1945.
A Romanesque parish church dating back to 1852. Spanish era church. Looks amazing from the outside.
The ruins of a church that was burned down during the Philippine Revolution against in 1896. The ruins are partly overgrown by a Balete (banyan) tree.
This high inactive volcano is a must-visit for beginners. The scenic views and beautiful mountain range made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommended for those looking to start their hiking journey.
The island is owned by José Antonio Leviste, a former governor of Batangas. Leviste opened the Resort Club on the island in 1995. It was a bad investment (also due to lack of fresh water on the island). In the end the idea of the resort was abandoned. What has left are remnants of the beach cabanas, swimming pool and an acropolis with Grecian pillars and statues on the edge of the island overlooking the sea. Great place for swimming and snorkeling. Visiting is not cheap though.
A picturesque chapel within the Caleruega Retreat Center. It is dedicated to Saint Dominic of Guzman and offers commanding views of Mount Batulao. It is a favorite wedding venue for those who can afford it.
Nice views and you can see Fortune Island at a distance.
