Entrance to the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River

Palawan, Philippines 1993

 

The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is a protected area in the Philippines.

The park is located in the Saint Paul Mountain Range on the western coast of the island of Palawan, about 80 kilometers (50 mi) north of the city of Puerto Princesa, and contains the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River.

It was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999, and voted as a New 7 Wonders of Nature in 2012.

 

A major tourist destination, it is mostly accessed through road trips to the seaside village of Sabang from where one of the many Bangkas (traditional boats) takes visitors to the park.
