context_page_description: Palanan, officially the Municipality of Palanan, is a 1st class municipality in the province of Isabela, Philippines. According to the 2015 census, it has a population of 17,260 people.
  Palanan is one of the four remote and isolated coastal towns of Isabela facing the Philippine Sea on the east and separated from the rest of the province by the Sierra Madre Mountains. It is also a suburb of Ilagan City, the provincial capital. There are no roads that connects the town to the rest of province. It can only be reached by a plane or boat ride, or a multi-day hike from the town of San Mariano, also a suburb of Ilagan City.
  It was in Palanan that one of the final chapters of the Philippine-American War was written on March 23, 1901, when General Emilio Aguinaldo was captured by American forces led by Gen. Frederick Funston, who had gained access to Aguinaldo's camp by pretending to surrender to the Filipinos.
