Relics of St. Francis Xavier, Goa: A profound spiritual experience. The venerated relics of the patron saint evoke a sense of awe and reverence. The beautifully adorned basilica showcases the rich Christian heritage of Goa. A pilgrimage destination that leaves a lasting impression.
Historic place, you can see the tomb and I guess a bit of the remains as well, since it's on the top.

Brief About: The body of Francis Xavier was first taken to Portuguese Malacca and two years later shipped back to Goa. It is said that the saint's body was as fresh as the day it was buried. The remains of the saint still attract a huge number of tourists (Christian and non-Christian alike) from all over the world, especially during the public viewing of his body every ten years (last held in 2014). The saint is said to have miraculous powers of healing.
300 year old church
When you came to Goa, Relics of st.Francis Xavier church is best place to visit fist time I saw the church truly I am so happy and it is one of the oldest church.
The place is disabled unfriendly in most places. It is very difficult to move anyone on wheelchairs within the church. Further, the guides, if their services are not employed, are extremely rude and curt. They would be standing within the church. Also, they can be seen ticking off tourists if they take a wrong turn. So, they can be easily mistaken to be the church staff. If asked a simple question, their reply is, "You don't want to hire us then why are you asking?". I saw it happening to another tourist. If these guides are not church staff, why should they be standing in the church without any tourists/ clients? It is sad to see their behaviour in this place of God. Hope the church authorities do something about these guides and also make the church premises disabled friendly.

Beautiful archway. Couldn't understand the statue, a woman with sword and a man lying at her feet. The plaque says that it is St. Catherine but it doesn't explain about the bearded man at her feet. Please tell me if someone knows. Thank you.
