Cagayan de Oro as many people know, is a haven for treasure hunters. Many people from other countries like the United States and Japan come to Cagayan de Oro in search of treasures buried by the retreating Japanese Imperial Army. There are also stories of caches left behind by American forces that were intended to be used as currency by the newly-liberated Philippine Government.

Most of these items are not really buried in Cagayan de Oro City although, I would not be surprised if there are a number of sites which might even be in the center of Cagayan de Oro itself. The stories are that these items are located in various areas in Bukidnon, Lanao, Davao, Agusan which can easily be reached from Cagayan de Oro City.

Yamashita was the Japanese general who is credited with bringing these treasures to the country when the Japanese Imperial forces retreated from their strongholds in Southeast Asia. Ching's World is all about the Philippines and its natural treasures of which Cebu City, Dumaguete and Cagayan de Oro City are prime examples.
