Laguna Road Trip No.14 Liliw, The Tsinelas Capital of the Philippines
Liliw is a 4th class municipality in the province of Laguna, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 39,491 people.
It is one of the highland towns forming the southern extremity of Laguna. It is situated at the foot of Mt. Banahaw.
Liliw is bounded on the north-west by Santa Cruz; north-east by Magdalena; on the east by Majayjay; on the west by Nagcarlan; and on the south by Dolores, Quezon.
The town's main attraction is its growing footwear industry. It started in 1931 when Casiano Pisuena became interested in making slippers. His first prototype was made from coconut husk and rubber from tire interiors. He soon became successful and many residents of Liliw followed suit. At present there are about 50 stores selling footwear in Liliw. The regular slippers are still the most popular, but many stores are now selling shoes, handbags and other leather goods. Most stores still carry the three-for-P100 slippers. The annual Tsinelas Festival is celebrated every end of April.
