This largest church in Asia was very well maintained along with the grounds. Attached to the church is a small museum.

A major tourist spot, meager church service-attendance. Good to soak in your trip. I am surprised upon bumping into this attraction on trip advisor, I thought it was the Basilica of Bom Jesus. The buildings are in the same compound, and I thought they were one property.

ITs located opposite side of the Basilica of Bom Jesus. The premises itself very nice, very large, and very peaceful than the Basilica of Bom Jesus. Our guide said that it is one of the largest church of the ASIA. The church is very clean and good place to go there. WORTH TO VISIT

Just opposite to the Basilica of Bom Jesus lies this majestic building in all it's beauty. Built towards one end of a big ground (a large open space), this place is definitely worth visiting. Well maintained & holding many relics, this place has art, architecture, history & some spiritual aura as well. A museum (entrance fee of Rs. 10) holds... More

Seriously... what did the Indians do with the old archaeological sites left by the Portuguese?? Well, they destroyed them all! It's revolting to see the end product of such stupidity.
