DoT features the Philippine experience in Palawan

The Department of Tourism's (DoT's) Philippine Experience Program features Palawan. One of the island province's attractions is the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, a protected area located in the Saint Paul Mountain Range on Palawan's western coast, some 80 kilometers north of Puerto Princesa. The park is known for the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River, also known as the Underground River. It has been under the care of the city of Puerto Princesa since 1992, was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999 and chosen as one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature in 2012. The City Tourism Department also offers tourists a paddle boat adventure to the mangrove forest and bird-watching. Moises Cruz of The Manila Times tries to eat the tamilok, a wood worm mollusk that lives in the mangrove or 'bakawan' along Palawan's coast. The tamilok, which is found on rotting wood or huge tree trunks, is also known as a 'ship worm.' Meanwhile, former Pinoy Big Brother housemate Jai Agpangan described her experiences in Palawan.
