When Culion was still a leper colony, the island was divided into two worlds. Leper patients were not allowed to enter the areas where those without the illness lived. Anyone crossing the border had to disinfect to prevent the disease from spreading. Now that the island is leprosy-free, their festival celebrates the unity and togetherness that was once impossible during the time when Culion was still a leper colony. #Culion #Palawan #travelph #travelstories #PhilippineHistory | Hello Shayne
