300-year-old Philippine settlement re-emerges due to drought at Pantabangan Dam, Nueva Ecija.

A 300-year-old Philippine settlement submerged by a dam in the 1970s has reappeared due to the country's drought, resurfacing as water levels drop. This marks the sixth time the ruins in Pantabangan Dam, Nueva Ecija province, have re-emerged since the dam's creation. The settlement, including parts of a church, municipal hall marker, and tombstones, is now a tourist attraction despite the region's extreme heat.
