SUBTERRANEAN UNDERGROUND RIVER
Which destination from Turkey weeks before arriving in the Philippines? We have prepared a good list of which tour we should join in the city, where we should see. One of the tours we will attend at Puerto Princesa was the Puerto Princesa Underground River tour, which was protected by Unesco.. Before we left, we told the hotel’s tour department which tours we wanted to go on, and when we learned the prices, we made our reservation. Puerto Princesa We paid PHP 1,540 per person for the Subterranean Underground River.
Subterranean Underground River The National Park is located 76 km north of Puerto Princesa. We have to go slow because the roads are bad. We arrived in Sabang after about 2 hours.. This is a tiny beach town.. There’s not really much around. We took our meals from the open buffet under the trees on the wide beach of Sabng and reached the pier in 5 minutes by walking as soon as we had our meal with the other people who joined the tour.. After a 20-25 minute boat ride, we arrived at the entrance of the Subterranean Underground River National Park.. Entering the forest area from the beach, passing through the wooden paths between the trees, we finally reach the entrance of the river.
Subterranean Underground River, one of the new 7 wonders of the world, is formed by a 20 million-year-old limestone formation. geological river empties into the north china sea. There are 800 kinds of vegetation and 224 kinds of animals live in the area covered by the national park.
After we put on our helmets and life jackets, we put on our narrow long boots, which we need to be very careful about balance. .
As soon as we arrive at the entrance of the cave, we feel the effect of the heavy smell coming from inside, and it smells awful true. we are getting closer with our guide rowing.
In the pitch dark where thousands of bats and starlings are flying, we look intently at every spot illuminated by the lantern. I am working. The shapes of the limestone formations range from vegetables to fruits. The river was decorated with dripstones and stalactites, it was a place where we felt ourselves in another dimension.. The highest point of the cave is 65 meters.
The river, which is 8.2 km long, takes 45 minutes to 1 We can only travel 1.5 km on the tour we made between hours and hours.. However, those who want to travel longer can buy a 3-hour tour that they can travel 4 km long. After we finish our tour, we go back the way we came.
We visit various animals that we did not stop on our way back. One of them is the long-tailed crab-eating macaques. Macaques live here when crustacean food mostly grows in mangrove forests. This kind of monkey, which likes to swim, is also very adept under water.. Its tail is 45 cm long, and its body and head are 60 cm long.
