Port Of Tacloban
A port is a maritime facility comprising one or more wharves or loading areas, where ships load and discharge cargo and passengers. Although usually situated on a sea coast or estuary, ports can also be found far inland, such as Hamburg, Manchester and Duluth; these access the sea via rivers or canals.

Buildings And Structures In Tacloban
A building or edifice is an enclosed structure with a roof, walls and windows, usually standing permanently in one place, such as a house or factory.
