00:00The Philippines is an island nation located in the Western Pacific. The region boasts one of the

00:20world's longest combined coastlines due to the nation's 7,000 tropical islands. From pristine

00:27beaches and marvelous natural wonders to interesting historic sites and beautiful coral reefs, the

00:33Philippines pack many exciting things to see and do. Here is a look at some of the best

00:39places to visit in the Philippines.

00:57Number 10. Vigan A visit to this town in northern Luzon

01:13is like a step back to colonial times. Horses pull carts along cobblestone streets and dark

01:19wood mansions flank the sides as a reminder of the grand life that many enjoyed in this

01:24colonial Spanish trading post. At the time, many goods like beeswax and gold were traded

01:30to China for exotic Asian items. Today the main income for this port is tourism, though the

01:36splendor from its trading history remains. Vigan has two hearts, a shopping center in the north

01:42country, and a business district in the south.

02:14Bohol.

02:17The huge orange eyes and tiny fingers of the minuscule tarsier serve as the spokesmodel

02:22for the island of Bohol.

02:24Just a short trip from Cebu, this area is one of the few remaining homes for this tiny

02:29primate.

02:30The unique geologic oddity of the Chocolate Hills serves as the second draw for travelers

02:35to the region.

02:36The unique mogul-like hills come with the legend of being formed by the rocks thrown by an angry

02:42giant.

02:43Many visitors to the island are, however, here to partake in the breathtaking dive opportunities

02:48that the region has to offer.

02:54We'll see you next time.

03:32Number 8.

03:44Manila.

03:48One of the most densely populated cities in the world, the Philippines' chaotic capital

03:53can be a bit hard to fall in love with at first sight.

03:56It is well worth persevering, however, as its towering skyscrapers and traffic-filled streets

04:02hide away lots of wonderful and unique places.

04:05Founded by the Spanish back in 1571, the city is set on the shores of Manila Bay, with Pasig

04:11River running through it.

04:13Old and new seamlessly mix together in Manila, as modern shopping malls lie alongside colonial-era

04:19churches and cathedrals.

04:21Full of trendy bars and artisan markets with some great nightlife, the Pearl of the Orient

04:26is certainly one of Asia's greatest mega-cities.
