Palau Visitors Authority joins the
2nd International Travel
Festival, December 18-20, 2014 at SMX Convention Center.
According to Lonely Planet, “the Republic of Palau is
inimitable. Most tourists who come here like to spend their time underwater,
for Palau is among the world's most spectacular diving and snorkeling
destinations. It features coral reefs, blue holes, wartime wrecks, hidden caves
and tunnels, more than 60 vertical drop-offs to play with, and an astonishing
spectrum of coral, fish, and rare sea creatures. There are also some outright
miracles of evolution: giant clams that weigh a quarter of a ton, for example,
and a lake teeming with 21 million softly pulsating, stingless jellyfish.
But you don't have to get wet to enjoy Palau. On land the
republic embraces Micronesia's richest flora and fauna: exotic birds fly around
the islands, crocodiles slip through the mangrove swamps and orchids sprout
profusely in backyards. The Palauan archipelago is incredibly diverse,
encompassing the polyglot state of Koror; the marvelous Rock Islands; Micronesia's second-largest island, Babeldaob (the land that Pacific standard time forgot); Peleliu, once war ravaged, now just ravishing; tranquil, tiny Angaur; the coral atolls of Kayangel and Ngeruangel; and the
remote South-West Islands.
Toss into the mix some of Micronesia's most sociable (and
responsible) people, and it's no surprise that parts of Palau are known as the
'beginning of everything', a template the rest of the world would do well to
follow.”
