It was an old photo of a beautiful church with a convent that got me all curious. The caption of the photo was “San Juan Bautista church, Longos town, Laguna.” There is no Longos town in Laguna. Not anymore I presumed.

Doing an initial research, I found a lakeside barangay (village) called Longos, and on it stands a church called Saint John the Baptist. Could this be the lost town of Longos?
