Must-visit spots in serene and quiet Silang

Nestled in the heart of Cavite and shadowed by the tourist-magnet Tagaytay, Silang offers an unexpected treasure trove of attractions for those curious enough to explore beyond the main roads. With a blend of historical landmarks, nature-inspired retreats, and vibrant local culture, Silang has grown from a pass-through town into a destination with its own identity. Here's a deeper dive into what makes Silang a fascinating stop.

CENTURIES-OLD MASTERPIECE

The historic Our Lady of Candelaria Parish Church dates back to 1640 and remains one of the oldest churches in the Philippines. Known for its unique blend of Mexican Baroque architecture, it boasts finely detailed wooden altars, a vibrant stained-glass façade, and intricate carvings that reflect its Spanish-era roots. If you're a history buff or spiritual seeker, visit this church and step back in time for a rich experience.
