Supporting Puerto Princesa Underground River!!

One of the many places that I have dreamt of visiting is the Puerto Princesa Underground River in Palawan here in my beautiful country the Philippines. As a nature lover and green advocate, I would love to see the beauty of this wonderful gift from God to mankind. As a postcard collector and proud Filipino, Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park (Puerto Princesa Underground River) is one of the Philippines’ beautiful places that have been inducted to be one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites last December 4, 1999. And aside from that, I wanted to experience the efforts made by the Palawan Local Government Units in making their place pollution free!

Then my dad said that the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park has been nominated as one of the beautiful places in the world and the problem was, he could not remember which award giving body since he is a bit newbie with Facebook. So, I searched online and discovered that indeed Puerto Princesa Underground River has been nominated and currently one of the 28 finalists of the New 7 Wonders of Nature. Isn’t that bliss!!

Anyway, since I love this place, I decided to make my own little way of promoting Puerto Princesa Underground River and help it to land as one the New 7 Wonders of Nature by having a postcard giveaway!
