The Mythical City of Biringan: Lost Cities, Engkantos, Secret Portals, and the Unsolved Mysteries of Samar

THE MYTHICAL CITY OF BIRINGAN Lost Cities, Engkantos, Secret Portals, and the Unsolved Mysteries of Samar By William Ubagan

Deep within the mist covered mountains and ancient forests of Samar lies a mystery that has captivated generations. Hidden from ordinary eyes, spoken of only in whispers, and feared as much as it is revered, the legendary City of Biringan remains one of the Philippines' greatest unsolved enigmas.

In THE MYTHICAL CITY OF BIRINGAN, freelance journalist William Ubagan embarks on a gripping investigative journey across Samar from November 9 to 15, 2014, in search of the truth behind the legendary hidden city. Through firsthand field investigations, interviews with local residents, elders, fishermen, teachers, priests, and eyewitnesses, Ubagan uncovers astonishing accounts of towering golden cities appearing in remote forests, mysterious disappearances, strange music echoing through the mountains, and encounters with beautiful but enigmatic beings known as engkantos.

Discover the chilling story of Macario Garcia, the humble fisherman whose coins mysteriously turned into stones after trading with a mysterious woman from an unseen city. Explore the baffling disappearance captured on CCTV in Gandara, the terrifying abduction of a teenager named Popo, and the long standing warnings never to eat the black rice of Biringan.

Journey into the forgotten history of the Dios Dios movement and its possible connection to the hidden kingdom. Learn about secret portals said to exist near ancient balete trees, caves, rivers, and mountains where the veil between worlds may be at its thinnest.

Is Biringan merely a legend born from folklore and imagination? A parallel dimension hidden from human perception? Or does an unseen civilization truly exist deep within the wilderness of Samar?

Blending investigative journalism, local history, folklore, eyewitness testimony, and supernatural mystery, THE MYTHICAL CITY OF BIRINGAN invites readers to explore one of the most fascinating and enduring legends in Philippine history.

Enter if you dare. But remember the warnings of the elders: be respectful, never follow mysterious music, and whatever you do, never eat the black rice.
