Tanauan City (My hometown)


Dawn at Tanauan City
Lying on the middle part of the tourist spots in Batangas, Tanauan City is bounded on the north by Calamba City, on the east by the town of Sto. Tomas, on the south by towns of Malvar and Balete, and on the west by Taal Lake and town of Talisay.

Simply stated, Tanauan City is my hometown and I am a proud Tanaueno!

And let me show you the tourist spots in Tanauan.
