Palawan Butterfly Eco-Garden and Tribal Village
A small butterfly garden on the city outskirts where you can watch Palawan butterflies emerge from their chrysalises and learn about the island’s indigenous way of life.
Inside the netted enclosures are various Palawan butterflies, and visitors can see the full cycle from egg to larva, pupa and adult. Specimens of insects, scorpions and beetles are also on display. Behind the garden, a tribal village shows traditional Pala’wan bamboo houses, blowpipe hunting and music performances. Entry costs about ₱50–100, and it is open roughly 08:00–17:00 daily. It is about 15 minutes’ drive from the city centre. The garden is quite small and is often included in a city half-day tour with the crocodile farm and Baker’s Hill.
Opening hours
