Summary

Description
English: As in the olden days, structures were marked with the year when these were built, and this tunnel for a railroad system that would connect the agricultural town of Aringay to Benguet province was dated 1913.

The Roman numerals are still clear to this day and the tunnel stands as firm as a rock, proudly defying wars, the elements, earthquakes, treasure hunters, vandals and wild plants that have grown above the tunnel.

The tunnel cut through a mountain. The structure, 7.5 meters wide, was so durable that it was used as headquarters of the Japanese Imperial Army, which considered it strong enough to withstand bombings of the Americans during World War II, local officials said-(Jhoanna Marie Buenaobra).
