Situated in Barangay Tandang Kutyo of Tanay, Rizal, Calinawan Cave is an enormous cave system composed of multiple levels and various chambers and openings. History tells us that the cave served as hideout by Filipino revolutionaries during Spanish-American war, and a shelter during the Second World War. How it got its name, according to local folklore, has a touch of history too, as it was where the Japanese and American troops settle their disputes, thus Calinawan from the Filipino word “linaw” which means to settle or to clear.
But more than its historical significance, the natural beauty of the cave’s interiors and chambers are magnets that attract a lot of people that even films and television productions often use the cave as their shooting location. Sadly, some of them left indelible and irreversible damages to the cave. Read More: https://www.lakwatsero.com/spots/calinawan-cave-tanay-rizal/#sthash.9CidjRjc.dpbs

Calinawan Cave is one of the most accessable destination from the metro that will give you an entirely different air. I, personally can’t believe that I just travel a couple of hours to reach such tranquil spot – a very promising destination that makes me wander more. Wander if we can add more years to these places’ life span?
Calinawan cave is a cave found in Brgy. Tandang, Kutyo, Tanay Rizal – it is named after the historical event where Filipino settled and agreed on their disputes between Spanish Revolutionaries, the agreement promises “linaw” a Filipino word for clarity (the bisayan word “kalinawan” means “peace” suits very well too). From what I have seen, the part that was opened for spelunking is just a small part – and yes it is, according to our guide the cave is composed of seven levels and only two were open as the others are not yet explored. The cave was privately managed until last year (2012)when they collaborated with DOT. Read More: http://www.senyoritalakwachera.com/2013/09/calinawan-cave-tanay-rizal.html
