Signs you can find
Many Philippine houses have tin roofs. However, since there are many tin roofs in Indonesia, you should not immediately assume that you are in the Philippines only by looking at the roofs.
A tricycle, a combination of a motorcycle and a cart/chair, is used as a cab. There are also pedicabs, a combination of a bicycle and a motorcycle. Buses in flashy colors called jeepneys are also used as the main means of transportation, and public transportation such as buses have yellow license plates. If you drive on the right side of the road and the vehicles are unique, you may be in the Philippines.

I think there are a lot of reddish brown poles and clasps.
The flamboyantly colored buses called jeepneys are also used as the main means of transportation. I think many of them do not have doors in the back.
You rarely find Royal Crown Cola in Japan, but in the Philipines, you can easily found in the city. It seems popular in the Philippines and the U.S. state of Georgia.
Wild dogs are common on the outskirts of the Philippines, as are buffalo.
Narrow down state/region
- The phone number can be used to identify the approximate area(by Geotips ).
- The name of the city may be written on the tricycle, but it is blurred and almost unreadable. I heard that there is also a regional characteristic by color, but I don't know it.
Agriculture
- Crop distribution varies from region to region
