The Imus Heritage Park is a memorial park in Imus, Cavite, Philippines commemorating the Battle of Alapan. It is known for the Shrine of the National Flag of the Philippines (Filipino: Dambana ng Pambansang Watawat ng Pilipinas)
The National Historical Commission of the Philippines recognizes the Imus Heritage Park as a National Historic Landmark through Resolution No. 5 of May 26, 1993. The park has also been a venue for National Flag Day commemorations.
The park covers an area of 5 hectares (12 acres), purportedly at the site where the Battle of Alapan occurred. It also features a 35.05 m (115.0 ft) flagpole, which used to be the old Independence Flagpole in Rizal Park in Manila. In 2019, a sanctum of Katipunan revolutionary flags was unveiled at the National Flag Shrine. A 10 m (33 ft) sculpture, Inang Laya ('Mother of Freedom'), was inaugurated the following year.
