The Philippines were battered by yet another powerful typhoon last month. Hundreds of thousands of people found shelter in evacuation centres and the damage was limited. The Red Cross said that people have become more aware of the dangers after Typhoon Haiyan struck the islands in 2013, killing more than 6,000 people and destroying towns and villages. Now re-building is under way and tourists are returning to the region. Rajan Datar joins them in the town of Baclayon in Bohol where "geotourism" is starting to flourish.
