Ngarchelong, Administrative state at northern Babeldaob Island, Palau
The state of Ngarchelong extends across 10 square kilometers of land featuring low rolling hills surrounded by dense mangrove forests.
Archaeological findings reveal that ancient Palauans constructed stone monoliths throughout Ngarchelong, establishing sacred prayer locations for religious ceremonies.
The traditional villages of Ngarchelong maintain nine distinct communities where families and clans preserve their ancestral connections through stone structures.
Visitors can contact the Ngarchelong State Government office at 45 Tarimel Road in Mengellakl or reach them by phone at (680) 488 2871.
Two small islands, Ngerkeklau and Ngerechur, sit just north of the mainland, providing additional territory to this northernmost region of Babeldaob.
