Dumaguete's history

Deep in the woods, this shrine will teach you a little about Dumaguete’s history. The shrine was built to commemorate the surrender of Japanese forces on Sept. 22, 1945, marking the end of the fierce battle and monumental invasion. The Japanese Shrine, however, gives you something to work towards as you hike the 2 ½-hour journey through the mountain across foot-bridges, through villages, and around a few boulders until you reach its location 2175 feet above sea level. #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer #summervacation #summervacation#beachvacation#hikingtrails#hotelstay#urbanexplorer
