A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park in the Province of Palawan is distinct for it's spectacular limestone karst landscape that includes an 8.2 kilometer subterranean river - said to be world's longest - that winds through majestic cave formations. The Park's wonders extend beyond it's beauty. Recent fossils found by Italian Scientist have been dated as far back to the Miocene period for about twenty million years ago, making the area a treassure trove for studies on the evolution of the Earth. in addition, the place has figured prominently in the "New Seven Wonders of Nature" search.

Can you see how beautiful our country is that is why many tourist is coming here to be able to see the wonders of our country and finally it is with great honor that we finally belong to the “ seven wonders of nature” and I also wish that I could see the cave in person.
That is another reason my dear Filipinos to take care of our environment to be able to preserve beautiful attractions like this and also protect lots of bio diversity that lives in it
