The Nagcarlan Underground Cemetery is already considered as a national historical landmark here in the Philippines.

| Very Peaceful view |
It's underground crypt was used as a secret meeting place in 1896 by Filipino revolutionaries which are most commonly known before as the Katipuneros.
Filipino patriots also used the underground cemetery to formulate their battle plans and to seek shelter during the Filipino-American War. During World War II, it also became a safe house for Filipino Guerillas.
The last burial was in 1981 based on the person that we talked to.
This is one of the side trips normally since it is along the main road, might as well drop by to see.
