Wonders of the Philippine Nature

Philippines being once a part of Asia Mainland blown away by some volcanic eruptions.

The Philippines is already famous for its white sand beaches, the scenic natural landscapes and the stunning marine life, but there are still a lot of untapped ecological treasures are country can offer.

To mention some, we have the Boracay, Mayon Volcano, Taal Volcano, Rice Terraces, Chocolate Hills, Pagsanjan Falls, Camiguin Island, Underground River, Tahubatah Reef, Day-asan Floating Village, Tamulayag islet, Talong Binaba, Marijago Mangrove Forest in Siargao.

Philippines being once a part of Asia Mainland blown away by some volcanic eruptions are bunk. The Philippines, better geologic evidence would declare, among them, seashells and fossils on our mountaintops, the difference of the rocks in the Philippines and those in the Mainland - had been nature's original creation pushed up by volcanic upheavals and coral formations from under the sea. Part of the young Philippines is still adorning. There are 7,100 islands during high tide. During low tide there, 7,500 islands more are coming up.

Our ecological treasures are truly world class.
