PUERTO PRINCESA

QUICK FACTS ABOUT PUERTO PRINCESA
By land, Puerto Princesa is considerably the second largest and the westernmost city in the Philippines.
Although a city, only a small concentration at its city proper particularly at Rizal avenue is bustling in people and transport. The greater part of Puerto Princesa still feels like a big town.
The mode of transport is via multi-cab – a small light truck that is common in the Philippines – to move from one barangay to another, and a tricycle – a three-wheeled bicycle based on a car design – to travel around the city and the nearby barangay. Regular fare is P12 for multi-cab and P10 for tricycle, except when going to and fro airport as it increases to P50.


Like in any parts of the Philippines, the locals can understand and speak English in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. However, here are some good phrases that might prove useful when you find yourself endearing with them.
