This is the cross at Mount Samat-the site and memorial of the Bataan Death march during WWII. If you haven't read up on the atrocities of the Japanese during this time, you'll get a refresher course from the museum located on-site.

For a 360 degrees view one has to climb up the Cross. My knees were sore so I didn't do it. The alternative lift was not working at the time we visited.
A historical site in Bataan where the 0 kilometer of the city begins. its also known a historical site from the Japanese invasion of the country.

Located near its summit is the Mount National Shrine, a national shrine dedicated to the fallen Filipino and American fallen during World War II.
