Bookmark & shareWelcome to bustling Koror, where histories are mingled and cultures are mixed.
The economic centre and capital of Palau, Koror is home to two-thirds of the republic's population. It's a much quieter town today than it was pre-WWII under Japanese occupation, with a pace more typically Micronesian - busy but without the hustle.
