Iwahig Prison and Penal Farm

Iwahig Prison and Penal Farm is a historic open-air penal colony located in Barangay Iwahig, Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Established in 1904 during the American colonial period, it spans approximately 28,000 hectares and is known as the "prison without walls." Inmates live in an open community and engage in farming and handicraft production. It is notable for its rehabilitation-focused model and as a cultural and historical visitor site.

Visitors can expect a large, open agricultural settlement surrounded by forests and farmland, about 20 km from central Puerto Princesa. The site includes administrative buildings, inmate dormitories, farming areas, and souvenir shops selling handicrafts made by persons deprived of liberty. Visitors can observe daily farm activities, view handicraft displays, and learn about the history and rehabilitation program through guided areas. The atmosphere is rural and low-security in designated visitor zones.
