Palawan Island (Philippines)
















Palawan is the country’s biggest province in terms of land area. More than 1700 islands are surrounding that awesome landscape. The Islands are surrounded by coral shelf’s. The Mountains are canopied by broad virgin forests. The green Mountains seem to be the place of the origin of the clouds.

Puerto Princesa is the capital town, called the City in the forest. The island is still almost untouched. Only 6 percent are developed. The income is based on fishing, farming and “tribiking”. Industrial areas are less, and even the tourism is still a young growing plant.

The destinations are scattered all over the islands. Amazing white beaches, waterfalls and hot springs, are the most visited tourist spots. The unique underground river is just one of them.
