Thank you Rajan.

The first to me is very enjoyable. The white church with it's stylized design surrounded by a myriad of tropical foliage !

But I have to ask, what was/is the impact of the Christian religion on the local culture?

I like both but the second one is my favorite with this row of trees on the left gives a good perspective.

Richard and Francois - thank you.

Richard - The Portuguese were in Goa for 450 years (from 1510 to 1961) and so the impact of Christianity on Goa is significant even though the majority of Goans (72% or so) are Hindu.
