Photographer's Note
The Church of St. Francis of Assisi was built in 1661 by the Portuguese in the Portuguese Viceroyalty of India
A stunning and charming building, the Church of St. Francis of Assisi is located in Old Goa at a distance of some 10 kilometers from the capital city, Panaji. The Church of St. Francis of Assisi is at the same complex in which Se Cathedral is located. The Church of St. Francis of Assisi of Goa was built during 1517-1521 AD. St. Francis of Assissi Church of India has now been turned into a museum. An interesting fact about the church is that the architectural style of the church has a mix of Christian and Hindu elements.
Unfortunately, i was only able to take this shot from afar.

Hi Ralf
This sure is an elegant and most beautiful building, it looks almost like a palace. Incredible to think it is so old too, my Irish eyes normally associates the age of building with dull grey stone. Beautiful shot and great note
All the best
Noel
