Marikina being the shoe capital, has it's shoe museum located at JP Rizal street. it has numerous collection of shoes from famous personalities. Established under the leadership of Mayor Bayani Fernando in 1998, Has become a major attraction in the city of Marikina. The building that housed the museum dates back to Spanish- American era.
Mrs. Imelda Marcos has donated around 749 pairs of shoes as part of the exhibit and the collection includes shoes from local artists, politicians and media personalities. Upon entering the museum, I cant help notice the pillar that is covered with shoe molds.
