Description

The Basilica of Bom Jesus is a masterpiece of Baroque architecture dating from 1594-1605, built from local laterite stone by the Jesuits. The 61-foot-high facade impresses with its Flemish ornamentation and elaborate carvings, which influenced the style of Goa's churches for centuries to come.

The interior houses the intact relics of St. Francis Xavier and a marble floor inlaid with precious stones. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986, it attracts millions of pilgrims and history buffs.
