Marinduque Island: Explore the Best 6 Attractions

Marinduque Island is a province in the Philippines, known for its unique Morions Music Festival. Tourists, locals, and foreigners flock to the island to take part in the colorful parade. The locals dressed in Morion costumes and masks.

They also know the province for its multi-billion-dollar mining industry in the 1960s. Which caused an accident that brought the mining industry to a standstill. This has also caused significant damage to the environment and the people of the island. With pending litigation with the multi-million dollar company responsible for the disaster, Marinduque is recovering. Although tourism is not the major source of your economy, it should.
