About Puerto Princesa
This Palawan capital sits on a long coastline where the underground river winds through cathedral-scale limestone caves carved by millennia of water flow. The river emerges from mountain darkness into daylight through a vast cave mouth that creates a geological gateway between underworld and surface worlds. Nearby beaches offer equally dramatic coastal scenery.
