This small town, however, has more than its lion’s share of history since this was the site of old Taal, until the latter was forced closer to Balayan Bay by the 1754 cataclysmic eruption of Taal Volcano. When Taal was still in San Nicolas, it was also the provincial capital.
This town can be reached from Manila by road via the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road through Lipa City, Cuenca, Alitagtag, and Santa Teresita. Alternatively, one can pass through Tagaytay through the Payapa road into Lemery and Taal.
