Hotel and Resort Reservation in the Philippines

Travel agents generally work with no charge to the traveler him or herself. Rather, the travel agent takes a small commission from the overall cost. Again, this isn't added on top of the sale or anything like that. Rather, their commission is taken out of the advertised price.

Banaue Rice Terraces

The Ifugaos built the Banaue Rice Terraces more than 2,000 years ago. It is about 5,000 feet above sea level and covers about 400 square miles of mountainside. This beautiful engineering of mankind is very unique in every sense of the word. They believed that the Batad ancestors of Ifugao carved this "staircase to the sky" with minimal tools and mainly used their hands to put the walls up one stone at a time.

Chocolate Hills in Bohol

These perfectly cone-shaped hills are a subject of debate whether it is an act of God or if they are manmade. There are about 1,268 hills and they are very much uniformed.During the rainy season, the hills are actually green. However, venture to them during the hot days of summer and they turn into a chocolate color-hence the name.

Intramuros in Metro Manila

Intramuros used to be the center of political, religious and military power during the Spanish era. This walled city in Manila was built on the ruins of a Malay settlement some 400 years ago. It was home for thousands of Spanish colonists and their families during those times. The walls suffered a tremendous damage during WWII. The Philippine government restored and reconstructed Intramuros in 1980 and it's now a major tourists attraction in Manila.
