Nokinok in Puerto Princesa, Palawan

Food, you say? Aside from getting more for less, Palawan's specialty would definitely be the crocodile meat. I had to try it when I got to Kinabuchs. Anyway if you're a little tight on the budget, you can always go to Nokinok in the middle of Puerto Princesa City, Palawan. Total cost? 247 php.

Corazon Tourist Inn: Palawan's Best Hotel in the Heart of the City

The Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center is more famously known as the Palawan Crocodile...

Mitra's Ranch in Puerto Princesa, Palawan

Two weeks ago, I was at Palawan for an official business trip. I was in a time crunch so not a lot of sight seeing took place. Anyway, here's a picture of the beautiful Mitra's Ranch.
