Fuerza de Santa Isabel - Taytay
Fuerza de Santa Isabel
STAR of the NORTH


*************************************************************************************************
The Municipality of Taytay is located in the northern part of the Province of Palawan,
about 210 kms. from Puerto Princesa City, the capital of Palawan.
Length of travel by private vehicle is about 5 hours from the City.

If you are heading up to El Nido via private van, Taytay is worth a sidetrip.
You should visit the Fuerza de Sta. Isabel, which is a symbol of its priceless history.

"TAYTAY" means bridge in the local dialect.
It's name is derived from the word "Talaytayan", a native word for few pieces of bamboo or wood,
arranged together to form a bridge.
