Philippines promises fishing villages and guitar factories for that perfect holiday

Region: Philippines

Apart from Boracay, Palawan in Philippines is slowly gaining reputation as a travel destination on Indian itineraries. A hidden island, Palawan is full of beautiful blue water mixes with emerald green, jungle-filled mountains that appear to rise up from the ocean, and small fishing villages that dot the island. Together with its neighbouring islands, it creates the Palawan province.

The Puerto-Princesa Subterranean River National Park features a large limestone karst landscape with an underground river. One of the river's distinguishing features is that it emerges directly into the sea. Kayaking in the lesser known islands of Philippines and make for exciting holidays.
