Calamba Rizal Shrine

Around Manila


Calamba, southeast of Manila on the shores of the Laguna de Bay, was the birthplace of the Philippine national hero José Rizal, and the restored Spanish-colonial house where Rizal was born is now venerated as the Rizal Shrine. On display are numerous items of Rizal memorabilia.

For Calamba, take either DLTB or Greenstar buses (P100, one hour).
