I decided to take a half-day tour of the Puerto Princesa City Center Area because I was already there.

The first stop was Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center, which is commonly known as the Crocodile Farm. It houses various wildlife species.

Then, we drove to Mitra’s Ranch, the ancestral home of a prominent local politician, offering panoramic views of the city.

The third stop was Baker’s Hill, a theme park and bakery offering local delicacies and scenic views.

Then we went to Immaculate Conception Cathedral, a large Roman Catholic cathedral in the heart of Puerto Princesa.

Built in 1961, the cathedral is a symbol of faith in Puerto Princesa and is dedicated to the city’s patroness, the Virgin Mary. It’s located near Plaza Cuartel, which adds historical depth to the area.

And the last stop was Puerto Princesa Baywalk, a popular spot for locals, ideal for leisurely walks along the waterfront.
