@miketanongako: Did you know there’s a sunken town beneath Taal Lake? 🌋 In 1754, the Taal Volcano erupted for seven months, burying the old town of Taal, Lumang Bayan ng Taal, and creating the freshwater lake we know today. Discover how this eruption changed Philippine geography, gave rise to the world’s only freshwater sardine (tawilis), and inspired legends of underwater church bells that still echo across Batangas. #DidYouKnow #urbanlegend #History #philippines #hiddenhistory
Extra fun fact! Taal Lake used to be called Bombon Lake

There was also a literal town buried because of that eruption. It was called the town of Sala, located quite far from the town of San Nicolas (formerly part of Taal town). I think some parts of it still exists today and was later absorbed as a barrio of the city of Tanauan.

imagine if the Taal lake was still a lagoon like it was pre-1754 eruption.

lumang bayan po ng Lipa ang lumubog sa Taal lake kasama ang lumang cathedral nito hindi po bayan ng Taal.
