'''Barili''', officially the '''Municipality of Barili''' ({{langx|ceb|Lungsod sa Barili}}; {{langx|tl|Bayan ng Barili}}),  is a [[municipality of the Philippines|municipality]] in the [[Philippine Province|province]] of [[Cebu]], [[Philippines]]. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 82,427 people.{{PH wikidata|population_reference}}

==History==

The word ''barili'' comes from the name of a local grass called ''balili''. The municipality was founded in 1632, though the parish of Barili was established in 1614. A cross was erected by [[conquistador]]es on their arrival at 1602, and still exists today.

It was in Barili that the Japanese forces captured [[Chief Justice]] [[José Abad Santos]] while on his way to Toledo as his escape route to Negros.

In 2006, the town became the first municipality in Cebu province to give protections to its heritage sites through Municipal Ordinance No. 04-06-01, s. 2006, declaring certain shrines, houses, buildings, monuments, markers and other areas as cultural properties of the municipality.

==Geography==
The town is situated on the [[Balili River|Balili river]], about two miles from its mouth.<ref>{{Cite EB1911|wstitle=Barili|volume=3|page=418}}</ref>

Barili is bordered to the north by the town of [[Aloguinsan, Cebu|Aloguinsan]], to the west is the [[Tañon Strait]], to the east is the city of [[Carcar]] and the town of [[Sibonga, Cebu|Sibonga]], and to the south is the town of [[Dumanjug, Cebu|Dumanjug]]. It is {{convert|116|km}} from [[Cebu City]].

===Barangays===
Barili is politically subdivided into 42 barangays.  Each barangay consists of [[purok]]s and some have [[sitios]].
