Hinagdanan Cave, Natural limestone cave in Dauis, Philippines
The limestone cave extends underground with numerous stalactites and stalagmites surrounding a freshwater lagoon reaching depths of 12 meters.
A local farmer discovered the cave system while clearing his land, finding two holes and constructing a wooden ladder to investigate the underground space.
During World War II, the cave provided shelter for local residents attempting to evade detection by Japanese Imperial forces operating in the region.
The cave maintains regular visiting hours from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM daily, with separate fees for entrance and swimming in the underground lagoon.
Natural light penetrates through ceiling openings, creating distinct illumination patterns on the crystalline waters of the subterranean pool.
