The Town
(The Summary of “Noli Me Tangere”)
San Diego, a town along the Laguna Lake, produces sugar, rice, coffee, and fruit, which are sold to Chinese merchants. Aside from its meadows and paddy fields, the town has a forest with old trees and tropical vegetation that had been purchased by a Spaniard who was the great grandfather of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra.
