Enjoy the Beautiful Palawan

Puerto Princesa City, Palawan, Philippines


In Palawan, there are just so many things to see and do with so much fun. We had the chance to see the worlds' famous Underground River in Sabang which is now becoming an attraction to locals and foreign visitors. Palawan used to be unheard of, simple and ordinary to most locals. However, so much has been done to this quiet place and it’s becoming a favorite to enjoy a fun vacation. The ocean is always inviting with its sparkling water shadowed by the bright sun and blue skies to enjoy. At night, there’s a chance to watch the fireflies, like mini lights flying around in a wisp, residing among the mangroves at Iwahig River. It is truly enchanting to watch them while floating around in total darkness, so actively glowing at night.  

Around the island, you can see some natural dwellers just enjoying the isle. But beware of some dangers for it might be too much for someone who is from the city and away from nature to be this close. For some, it can exciting but might be overwhelming for others. In fact, there are giant lizards that roam around the island, just comfortable with nature.

If you want to visit the underground river, make sure you book ahead of time. The tourism in Palawan controls the number of visitors in a day and that is something a tourist would consider to avoid disappointments. The underground river is measured to be 8.2 km long. It is easily navigable up to 4.3 km. and is reputed to be the longest navigable underground rive in the world. Palawan is trying to preserve everything to it’s nature state and so they made some rules for tourist to follow.

Rules for Cave Tour are as follows:
Present a valid entry permits
Register on the logbook
Wear safety equipment and wait for your turn
Keep voice at a minimum while on tour
Do not touch walls or other rock formations
Do not scare cave dwellers
Do not smoke, eat or throw waste inside cave
Relax and enjoy the trip by paying attention to cave guides

The Underground River is Palawan's pride. There are also some interesting restaurants that can definitely surprise one's discriminating taste for dining. Enjoy Palawan's beautiful sceneries and capture some peace in your heart while there.
