Ideal Postcards to Collect from the Philippines
If you are not familiar of the Philippines and what postcards you might want to collect from our country, this post will give you some ideas on what type of postcards you should start asking from your Filipino Postcrosser Friends.
1. UNESCO Heritage Sites – Just like other countries, Philippines boasts a lot of beautiful natural and manmade tourist worthy spots and one of them is the Puerto Princesa Underground River.
2. Waterfalls – There are many waterfalls in the Philippines. In Iligan City alone, there are 23 waterfalls!! But not all of them have their own postcards.
3. Folkdances – Since Philippines is composed of 7,107 islands, then it also means we are a country of different cultures thus almost every ethnic groups has their own folkdances.
4. Beaches – And because the Philippines has a lot of islands, we can’t deny that we are hugely blessed with a lot of beautiful beaches like Boracay, Dakak and many more!!
5. Tourist Spots – Aside from the UNESCO Heritage Sites, we have many tourist spots and most of them have postcards of their own. Not massively produces in some places but can only be acquired by local stores.
6. Churches – The Philippines was colonized by the Spaniards for almost three centuries, so having many Catholic Churches is not a big surprise.
7. Cultural Heritage – We are fond of saying “Only in the Philippines.” Why? Because there are a lot of customary things and attitude that can only be found in our country just like the “pagmamano.”
8. Map Cards – We have different map cards. Though not many but we can brag a few!
This is only a quick list. On my next posts, I will give you more ideas on each! Hope you enjoy my post. Please share!

Great post!
with postcard enthusiasts like you, the mail industry will never become extinct amidst all the high tech ways of communication. there is really a need to revive and teach the younger ones to appreciate and eventually start a hobby of postcrossing. great post mommy rubz.
I liked most of the postcards from the Philippines most especially that they’re coming from friends however,I fell in love with the “Pagmamano” postcard the time I encountered it through postcrossing.And I can’t believe it’ll be soon mine^_^
I’m lucky to have the Underground river and map of the Philippine postfcards^_^
Great post sis!
For me kasi, postcards were just for my Social Science projects during GradeSchool. Now I’m gradually realizing their worth. Keep the posts coming! 
Did you got the postcards I sent you?
this is such an great post. honestly, i would just accept any card but now am thinking of completing Unesco Heritage sites in the philippines + hopefully I can also collect “only in the Philippines” postcard
these are lovely! I hope to receive one from the Philippines soon teeheee.
I have a soft spot for the underground river coz we sepnt our honeymoon in Palawan back in 2006.
Ooh, this reminds me to send out the post cards I have been meaning to send ages ago..
Shared this on my wall..
You can never go wrong in sending out top tourist spots and the beautiful beaches of the Philippines.
I will give you Manila Postcard on our GEB mommy
Truly Filipino! I specially love postcards that are showing our great traditions.
being proud of Pinas is given, but to blog about it is something to show that pride to others for it will promote the beauty that we are happy and proud of…great post!
Nice postcards Mommy! I only got to visit PP Underground River and the Manila Cathedral. I am hoping I’ll get to visit more beautiful places here in our country.
This is the first time I am seeing cultural heritage postcards. WANT!
Oh, and I so love seeing the email me badge. Proud moment!
Wow this is amazing! This is also a perfect way to promote our country.. glad to know there are many photo enthusiasts around the world! I think it’s a great idea to send as many postcards of Puerto Princesa’s Underground River, now that it’s soon to be an official part of the 7 Wonders.
Wow! Thanks for sharing this MOmmy Rubz. I feel like I have been in a tour for a while while viewing the post cards.. Looks interesting I hope to create a travel blog soon.
Nice postcards Mommy Rubz! Shared, liked and tweeted!
