Philippine Eagle Centre
The powerful, large Philippine Eagle (also known as the
monkey-eating eagle) is found only in the mountains of eastern
Luzon in the north of the archipelago, and in the heavily forested
area of Mindanao. The breeding camp for these magnificent predators
is sited at Malagos, in Calinan near Davao City. Also at Malagos is
an orchid farm, sanctuary of Philippine native orchids, which
offers a restaurant and swimming pool as part of its
facilities.
Information & Facts
Language
The official language of the Philippines is Filipino, but
English is widely spoken. Tagalog is the most predominant of the
many dialects or local languages spoken throughout the
islands.
Money
The currency of the Philippines is the Peso (PHP), which is
divided into 100 centavos. Major credit cards are widely accepted
in the cities and tourist destinations. Banks do not always accept
travellers cheques, but a receipt of purchase is useful. ATMs are
available in the major cities. US dollars are widely accepted in
Manila and other tourist areas and are the easiest currency to
exchange; otherwise Euros and Pounds Sterling can also be exchanged
in banks and hotels. Banks open from 9am to 3pm, Monday to Friday,
but their ATMs are open 24 hours. It is best to carry pesos when
travelling outside of major centres.
