Goa's World Heritage Site...

some glimpses from one of India's UNESCO World Heritage Site here at Old Goa...a skip and a hop from where I stay..

This site is a complex of churches constructed by the Portuguese when they arrived in Goa...some 400 years ago...and it remains till today...as one of the most venerated places of worship in India...

these are Living Monuments..a term referring to those heritage structures that are still in active use, by the locals.

It's religious elements are the most eye catching, even for a not-so religious character as yours truly.......
