Philippines Travel

While it’s the political capital of Leyte, this bustling city is the geographic and commercial centre of both Leyte and Samar. Smack in the middle of this pair of islands separated only by the San Juanico Strait, Tacloban is a relatively cosmopolitan outpost in a large underdeveloped and poor territory.

Activity centres on the bustling wharf area and market in the middle of town. Tacloban’s most famous daughter is Imelda Romualdez Marcos, whose family home is at Tolosa, a little way south; the family’s influence in the town is evident in street names and various public buildings.
