Taytay, Rizal
Taytay, officially the Municipality of Taytay (Filipino: Bayan ng Taytay; IPA: [taɪˈtaɪ]), is a municipality in the province of Rizal, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 397,111 people. It is the 2nd most populous municipality in the country, after Rodriguez, Rizal. It is also known as the Garments Capital of the Philippines.
While economically, demographically and politically qualified, plans to convert it into a city was set aside, pending social and administrative reforms in the municipality.
According to the 2022 Commission on Audit (COA) Annual Financial Report, Taytay is the seventh richest municipality in the Philippines with a total asset of Php 3.67 billion.
In 2023, the National Competitiveness Council has named Taytay as the "2nd Most Competitive Municipality (1st & 2nd Class)".
Taytay is derived from taytáy, an archaic Tagalog word meaning "a small foot bridge made from bamboo or wooden poles".
Taytay was a settlement situated along the coastline of the eastern side of Laguna de Bay that formed part of the Kingdom of Namayan, also known as the Kingdom of "Sapa", which was ruled by Lakan Tagkan. The said territory is what we know now as the district of Santa Ana, Manila.
Upon the arrival of the Franciscan missionaries on July 2, 1578, in Manila, they proceeded to evangelize the inhabitants of Namayan and organized it into a pueblo and named it Visita Santa Ana de Sapa. It comprised the communities of Meycatmon, Calatongdongan, Dongos, Dibag, Pinacauasan, Yamagtogon, Meysapan (Pasay), Malate, Dilao (Paco), Pandacan, Quiapo, Sampaloc, San Miguel, San Juan del Monte, San Felipe Neri (Mandaluyong), San Pedro Macati, and Taytay.
Thence, the district of Santa Ana de Sapa became the Franciscan's central mission station.
