#34 Hot springs and mountain view

We were able to plan and afford Coron, Palawan by this awesome cheap promo. Its a 3 day 2 night package at a private island off the coast of the island at 7k (according to them, normal rates accounts to 30k). Then got a airplane promo from Cebu Pacific at 999 pesos. 

DAY 1 

We went a day ahead of our booking to check the town, Maquinit Hot springs and Mt. Tapyas







Coron Tricycle


One side street


One local art and souvenir shop


724 steps going up , with giant cross at top. This mountain is accessible by a 5 minute walk from the town proper.
The mountain stands 210 meters and a cross towers at more than 2000 feet above sea level.


Goofing out at Mt Tapyas


Atop Mt Tapyas, a view of the town

And surrounding islands


Maquinit Hot spring, the water is very very hot! It took me a long time to psyche myself get in the water. =)
It is about 5km from town proper and we got there by tricycle.

Steam coming out of the spring!
