Puerto-Princesa Subterranean River National Park This park features a spectacular limestone karst landscape with an underground river. One of the river's distinguishing features is that it emerges directly into the sea, and its lower portion is subject to tidal influences. The area also represents a significant habitat for biodiversity conservation. The site contains a full 'mountain-to-sea' ecosystem and has some of the most important forests in Asia. Puerto-Princesa Subterranean River National Park encompasses one of the world’s most impressive cave systems, featuring spectacular limestone karst landscapes, pristine natural beauty, and intact old-growth forests and distinctive wildlife. It is located in the south-western part of the Philippine Archipelago on the mid western coast of Palawan, approximately 76 km northwest of Puerto Princesa and 360 km southwest of Manila. #urbanexplorer #maydaytrip

Luli Island got its name because its sandbar appears and disappears (lulubog and lilitaw), depending on the tide. This is part of the Honda Bay Island hopping tour you can do from Puerto Princesa city. It has powdery cream-colored sand and clear emerald waters perfect for swimming and beach bumming. The island is small and you can explore it entirely with a ample time. The island have a complex for tourists for eating especially on lunchtime. During our tour, I have a great time relaxing in the hammocks provide. I had a wonderful swimming time there too. Visit Palawan and add this little paradise on your bucket list too. #MaydayTrip #BeachVacation #urbanexplorer

Puerto Princesa is the capital of Palawan province in the Philippines. The island's main airport is here and it's a convenient hub for visiting other places in Palawan like El Nido and the underground river. But Puerto Princesa is a destination in its own right, with diverse attractions. Getting There - Flights from Manila and elsewhere arrive at Puerto Princesa Airport, which is unusually close to the city centre. It's actually possible to walk into town from there, though a rickshaw or taxi is not expensive. Attractions - Puerto Princesa is famous for its beautiful, imposing cathedral. There are also several nice beaches. Hotels - This is a major tourist area and there are many hotels and guesthouses. Food & Restaurants - A range of food is available, particularly along the main street through town and in Chinatown. Its also home to Palawan's first microbrewery, which has a wonderful outdoor bar. Definitely spend an evening chilling there. Money - There are few places to exchange money except for American dollars, and bank machines don't accept all types of cards. Pawn shops may exchange other currencies but the rate is very unfavourable. If you have currency other than USD it's a good idea to change it at Manila Airport. The rate is better than anywhere on Palawan. Although you'll probably come to Palawan for other places, especially El Nido, it's worth spending a few days at the beginning or end of your trip in Puerto Princesa. #leaveyourmark #lightthecity #urbanexplorer #philippines #palawan #beach #cathedral #foodieheaven #tropical
