The Subterranean Underground River in the River National Park is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Palawan. It has an 8.2 kilometers navigable underground river, and is the longest in the world. The park has a limestone karst mountain landscape.
From the downtown city of Puerto Princesa, it'll take you about2-3 hours landtrip to the town of Sabang. From there, you may take a boat ride or walk through trails, popularly known as "monkey trail". If you're adventurous and choose the latter, then you'll be passing by Central Park where you can see squirrels, anteaters, lizards, and snakes freely roaming around. Well-trained park rangers will accompany you to the rest of the trek.
The park's enchanting beauty will make your visit worthy and unforgettable. It's surrounded by a range of forest formations. It represents eight of the thirteen forest types in tropical Asia. Stalactites and stalagmites formations are just one of the breathtaking views inside the cave. It's amazing how they are formed into fruits and vegetables. Those that are mentioned in the song "Bahay Kubo" are there. You'll be transported from amusement to a sudden solemnity because on the other wider portion of the cave is what they call "The Cathedral". You'll see the magnificent views of the Holy Family, candles, angels, and chandeliers. There are hundreds of formations in the cave. You can even see a Madonna and Child structure. You'll certainly be entertained with the stories of the tour guide who'll be with you throughout the journey.
The underground river, by virtue of Proclamation No. 835 on March 26, 1971 was officially declared to be called as the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park and is now included as one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
