The trip to Sohoton National Park is as interesting as the park itself.
In South-East Philippines, on the island of Samar, there are caves and a huge natural bridge which are hidden by the enormous jungle covering the area. Already the trip to arrive at those sights is very nice. You can leave from the town of Tacloban, capitol of the island of Leyte, in a so-called jeepney, to arrive in one hour in the village of Basey in the south of the island of Samar. Actually, in order to return to Tacloban you have to cross one of the few bridges joining islands in the Philippines. There, the only way to visit the National Park of Sohoton is to rent a typical Philippine boat, a tree trunk where you can sit and two floats to stabilize the vessel. The trip takes you along a beautiful river. Both sides of that river are formed by pristine jungle, interrupted only by small, poetic villages. Here you can admire palm trees with horizontal trunks, enormous trees and other small boats, with children navigating with wooden sticks.
