Davao is the largest city on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines. Its international airport and seaports are among the busiest cargo hubs in the Philippines. The city has good beaches and mountain resorts, and is close to diving spots and the highest peak in the Philippines, Mount Apo.
There are several fascinating landmarks in Davao City, ranging from historical monuments to natural wonders to man made marvels. These include the Fort of Datu Bago, the Philippine Eagle Center, the People’s Park (designed by the local government to be a showcase of the culture of the indigenous tribes in the city) and Talomo Beach, a dive site sought after by scuba divers owing to the numerous sunken ships in the area.
