Puerto Princesa Underground River

Philippines very own Puerto Princesa Underground River was included in the 28 shorlisted for the new 7 Wonders of the World. It is located about 50 kilometers north of the city of Puerto Princesa Palawan, Philippines. It is also known as St. Paul's Subterranean River National Park, or St. Paul Underground River. A distinguishing feature of the river is that it winds through a cave before flowing directly into the South China Sea

Until the 2007 discovery of an underground river in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula,[1] the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River was reputed to be the world's longest underground river.

The area also represents a habitat for biodiversity conservation. The site contains a full mountain-to-the-sea ecosystem and has some of the most important forests in Asia. It was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site on December 4, 1999.
