Koror, the former capital and largest city of the Pacific island nation of Palau, is located in the southwestern part of the Caroline Islands and is connected by a number of islands, making it the economic, cultural and tourist center of Palau. It has a population of about 12,000, and although the administrative functions were relocated to Ngaru in 2006, it still hosts most of the country's commercial facilities, hotels and attractions. The waters around Koror are home to some of the world's top diving destinations, such as the Jellyfish Lake and the Blue Hole, which attract tourists from around the globe with their crystal clear waters, abundant marine life and unique limestone formations. The city is a blend of Palau's traditional and modern civilizations, with tranquil beaches and pristine jungles, as well as convenient shopping malls and diverse cuisines, making it an ideal gateway for exploring Palau's natural and cultural charms.
