- Koror is everyone's first stop. It is here where you can find accommodations in five star resort facilities such as the Pan Pacific's PPR. There are plenty of restaurants, local nitelife, a coffee/internet house, stores, the hospital, the community college, Congress, etc. Koror, is the current capitol but the capitol will soon be moved to Babeldaob which is the largest state in terms of land mass. Koror is only larger in terms of population. Koror, is home to the Ibedul (hi-ranking chief of Palau) and it was here that the British first arrived in 1783, since the most accessible port of the main island is in the state of Koror. The sacred animal of Koror is the Shark. Be sure to check out the Koror Bai (men's meeting house).
