The geographical diversity of the country is astounding—the islands are home to spectacular white-sand beaches, bubbling volcanoes, 2000-year-old rice terraces and some of the best surfing and diving in the world. This Philippines travel pictorial captures the islands' stunningly varied natural landscapes and provides an insight into the lives of the Filipino people, their centuries-old traditions, exuberant religious fiestas and warm hospitality.
