Leyte was the first to be liberated by the combined Filipino and American troops. General Douglas MacArthur's assault troops landed in the Tacloban and Palo beaches (White Beach and Red Beach, respectively) and in the neighboring town of Dulag (Blue Beach) on 20 October 1944. These landings signaled the eventual victory of the Filipino and American forces and the fulfillment of MacArthur's famous promise: "I Shall Return."
Metrodorm Tacloban is located at Lumbang 1 Sagkahan Calanipawan Road, a pleasant place to stay, situated in Tacloban, 7 km from MacArthur Landing Memorial National Park.
