SETTING
SUMMARY
ABOUT

Setting

The setting of the novel was in the 19th century Philippines, specifically at Manila, during the latter years of the country as colony of Spain in Asia.

The novel's plot started in the scene when Ibarra visits his betrothed María Clara, the beautiful daughter of Captain Tiago and affluent resident of Binondo, Manila.

Jose Rizal’s novel “Noli Me Tangere” mainly took place in San Diego in the province of Laguna. This is where the main character Crisostomo Ibarra came from. The story also mentioned that he studied in Europe. Upon his arrival, he was invited to stay at Anloague Street in the city of Manila. They also took a boat ride at Laguna de Bay where they witnessed a crocodile in the water. The plot centered within San Diego Laguna but since portions of the story took place elsewhere, the answer would be that there were multiple locations.
