Se Cathedral
Nestled in the historic heart of Old Goa, Se Cathedral stands as a testament to the region's rich and complex past, its grandeur a palpable echo of the Portuguese colonial era. This majestic cathedral, dedicated to Saint Catherine of Alexandria, rises from a raised laterite plinth, its facade a blend of Tuscan and Portuguese-Manueline styles that evokes a sense of timeless elegance. As you step inside, the spacious nave and intricately carved altars envelop you in a world of gold-adorned splendor, while the resonant chime of the 'Golden Bell' from the bell tower seems to carry the whispers of centuries past. Here, amidst the serene atmosphere and stunning architectural details, you can almost feel the weight of history and the vibrant cultural heritage of Goa.
