I honestly knew very little about Liliw until Cille and Titus invited me to visit their home a few months ago. I wasn't really expecting much, except for the batis that Cille mentioned. na by the way, hindi pa natin na visit! haha! But other than that, I thought it's just going to be a do-nothing weekend in the highlands. I was wrong.
Before Liliw, Laguna to me just meant hot springs and buko pie. Thanks to this couple, I was able to discover a deeper culture that isn't much publicized on social media.
Our first stop: Liliw, Laguna.
The Place:
Liliw. A small town at the southern end of Laguna, dubbed as the Tsinelas Capital. It is situated at the foot of Mount Banahaw on a hilly plain bounded by the neighboring towns of Sta.Cruz (where the Emilio Jacinto Burial Shrine and Immaculate Concepcion Parish is located), Magdalena (for the St, Mary Magdalene Church and Bahay Laguna), Nagcarlan (for the Bunga Falls, Underground Cemetery and Nagcarlan Church), and Majayjay (for the shooting at the rapids and white water rafting experience).
