            Another must-see attraction in Laguna is the Nagcarlan Underground Cemetery, which is situated inside a chapel🕌. It sits on a hilly terrain in the laid-back town of Nagcarlan in Barangay Bambang. You can find the catacombs where the friars and wealthy people were laid to rest at the chapel's lower ground floor. 

        During the revolution, it served as a hiding place for guerrillas who resisted the Japanese occupation in World War II. It was built in 1845 under the supervision of Franciscan Fr. Vicente Velloc. In 1981, Nagcarlan Underground Cemetery was declared as a National Historical Landmark. Its iconic structure is currently under the supervision of the National Historical Commission of the Philippines.
