MACAHAMBUS CAVE

Maca means "cave" and hambus means "to fall from the top of the river". This was the site of the Battle of Macahambus Hill. On June 4, 1900, a confrontation took place between the Kagayanon tribe and American soldiers. It is said to have been the first Filipino victory over the Americans during the Philippine uprising. Inside, there's a view of the Cagayan River, where the Spaniards once found gold. Outside the rainy season, the water level is quite low and you can take a dip in the pool.
