Pamitinan Protected Landscape, Nature reserve in Sierra Madre mountains, Philippines
The Pamitinan Protected Landscape spans 608 hectares of limestone cliffs, caves, and forests along the Marikina River, 34 kilometers northeast of Manila.
The Pamitinan Cave served as the headquarters for the Katipunan movement, where Filipino independence was proclaimed on April 12, 1895.
The limestone formations and caves within the protected area contain ancient inscriptions and artifacts that document the historical struggles of the Filipino people.
Visitors can access the main cave system through a suspension bridge at the Montalban Gorge, leading to the Bulwagan chamber with its independence inscription.
The Wawa Dam, constructed in 1904 within the protected area, transforms into a recreational destination during summer when water levels decrease.
