Indang, municipality of the Philippines in the province of Cavite
Indang is a municipality in Cavite province on the Philippines. The town spreads across farmland and is known for agriculture and springwater resorts that attract visitors year-round. At its center stand an old Catholic church dating to the early 1600s, the main campus of Cavite State University, and local markets selling fresh produce and handmade goods.
Indang originally formed part of Silang and separated as its own town in 1655. During the Philippine Revolution, it became a significant base for the Katipunan independence movement and witnessed key events including Andres Bonifacio's retreat following an important meeting.
The name Indang carries colonial roots and connects to the religious devotion that residents practice today, particularly to the Seven Archangels and St. Gregory the Great. Visitors can observe this faith woven into daily life through local celebrations and the quiet reverence people show in the town's historic churches.
The town sits close to shopping malls and city services while maintaining a rural feel, making it accessible for day trips or longer stays. Visitors should allow time to wander through local markets and farmland, especially if interested in seeing agricultural operations or enjoying the springwater resorts during warmer months.
The town earned the title Food Basket of the Province due to its agricultural output and was called Walang Tinag by the Katipunan during the revolution, reflecting its strategic importance. This dual identity as a production center and revolution site gives it unexpected depth for visitors seeking more than surface-level sightseeing.
