Most people will start their tour in Manila or Cebu City. The Philippines has 7641 islands and we recommend to visit at least two or three islands during your trip. We recommend to customize your visit to the Philippines according to your interests. The country has so much more to offer than beaches and rice terraces. The Filipino cuisine is one of the most underrated kitchens in the world. The country (and its kitchen) is a unique blend of Chinese, American, Spanish and indigenous influences. Filipino culture is really unique in Asia. The Philippines is one of the most diverse countries in the world when it comes to nature and anthropology. The islands of the Philippines are inhabited by a number of different ethnic groups. About 15% of the population is made up of what are generally defined as indigenous people. They are the descendants of the original inhabitants of the Philippines.
There are influences of Spanish architecture in the Philippines, mainly among the country’s churches, government buildings, and universities. Four baroque churches are included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Vigan is a UNESCO World Heritage Site but it is not the only place in the country that has fantastic architecture.
The Philippines’ rainforests and its extensive coastlines make it home to a diverse range of birds, plants, animals, and sea creatures. It is one of the ten most biologically diverse countries in the world. The beaches and the underwater world are as beautiful as they come in our world.
