St. John The Baptist Parish Church. Our parish church in Liliw, Laguna was built in 1605 in Romanesque style. Like most churches, it also suffered from earthquake in 1880 and fire in 1898.


But due to its religious parishioners, it has been well preserved and continues to get developed over time. Up to this day, Liliwenos, as the towns people are called, continue to preserve and beautify the church in the desire to restore its former glory.

In the land of slippers in Liliw, Laguna, the Arabela restaurant is the foodie place to be in. A low-ceiling restaurant which is cute and patronized by even foreigners. Named after their daugthers Ara and Bela, Bobby and Tonet Camello started the restaurant by just selling cakes and brownies. They serve cakes, pastries, pasta, pizza and coffee.

Thanks to the first festival and all the attention it had then, businessmen and plain customers are mostly returnees going ga-ga over the thriving town of Liliw, especially during summer and Christmas seasons.
