Sea view of Linapacan village: colorful stilt houses at the foot of a lush tropical hill.
A stilt village stretches along the coast of Linapacan, a still lightly touristed archipelago in Palawan province, Philippines. The wooden houses sit directly above the water, a traditional architecture adapted to the tides and to subsistence fishing.
