  • This place is noted for its resistance campaign against the occupation of american forces in 1901, the massacre that happened to the townspeople by the 'kill& burn' order by a U.S. Officer Smith and the looting of two Balangiga bells by the U.S. soldiers and now kept in an airforce base near Cheyenne, Wyoming. Attempts to get U.S. return of the bells to Balangiga failed.
