Underground River

Puerto Princesa's Underground River

My first trip in palawan is to go to the  familiar Puerto Princesa Underground River. during my tour we are required to wore life jackets and hard hats, Im so excited entering the puerto princesa Underground River. Along the river the  waters are pretty clear and blue and into the amazing entrance you will see the old  stalactites and so many bats that are flying in the cave. But there are just more things that this underground river can show you behind those caves.

The Underground River is Puerto Princesa’s pride. It is also considred as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature. Proudly Pinoy! 

The Underground River can be proud of all the true nature it is. that's why all the species living in the cave are good for their habitat as they are growing. This proves that underground river is not only a tourist attraction, but also a home to many living things.

It is considered home and habitat for all the species that they are living in the cave, and if you are, the tourist you can also protect our nature to be one of the most beautiful places all over the world.

Puerto Princesa Underground River is indeed a treasure not only for Palawan, but also for the whole Philippines. For us tourists, it may only be a nice place but for several species of plants and animals, this is their home. The underground river is something that we, people especially Filipinos, should be aware of. But despite that, it is also our responsibility to protect this place no only for the sake of tourism but also for the biodiversity that this place can offer.
