- Plaza Cuartel - Plaza Cuartel is an outdoor park and a significant landmark in Palawan, originally built by the Spaniards as a garrison to protect the country from invasion. During World War II, it was converted into a penal colony by the Japanese military, where hundreds of American soldiers were held captive. Towards the end of the war, the Japanese executed the Palawan Massacre. The remains of the American soldiers were later interred at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery in Missouri, USA.
Today, Plaza Cuartel serves as a leisure park and a popular tourist attraction in Puerto Princesa. Open to the public, it offers a glimpse into Philippine history, with its somber garrison and dark tunnels. Historical markers on the old walls remind visitors of the tragic events that occurred there.

- Baker’s Hill - Baker’s Hill is a charming tourist spot located on a hill in Barangay Santa Monica, Puerto Princesa. Initially a bakery famous for its delicious pastries, especially hopia, it has evolved into a picturesque park. The owners generously open this private property to the public.
Baker’s Hill is an ideal place to purchase “pasalubong” (gifts to bring home from a trip). In addition to their renowned hopia, they offer a variety of delectable baked goods such as crinkles, cakes, bread, pastillas, and pizza.
It’s also a great spot for lunch or snacks, with restaurants and snack bars serving delightful cuisine. Known for “tamilok,” a famous exotic Filipino delicacy, often found in Palawan and Aklan, it’s also referred to as woodworm, the wood-eating larvae of various beetle species.
- Mitra Farm - Rancho Sta. Monica, commonly known as Mitra’s Ranch, was once a private property but has been open to the public from 6 AM to 6 PM. It is a must-visit in Puerto Princesa City, offering breathtaking views. Visitors can enjoy activities such as trampolining, horseback riding, and zip-lining.
- Palawan Butterfly Ecological Garden and Tribal Village - This location reflects the enchanting beauty of a province known as the “Last Frontier of the Philippines.” It features a wide variety of Palawan butterflies, surrounded by live exhibits of scorpions, green-crested lizards, phasmids, and mantises, which are their natural predators. It provides insight into the natural ecology of these vibrant insects.
Additionally, the garden houses rescued endemic wildlife of Palawan, offering them a second chance at life after being saved from poachers. Animals like the Palawan Peacock Pheasant and the Palawan Bearcat serve as ambassadors for their species. By educating the public about these wild yet gentle creatures, the facility raises awareness of how human actions can significantly impact the environment.
