An old church in a beautiful setting.
The Church of Our Lady of the Sea in the village of Oxel, Goa was established in 1661; the present structure was built in 1899. I explored this lovely setting over multiple visits.

hi,
These are really nice snaps of the church, I had taken quite a few of them from the fields during my many visits to oxel, I could mail you some of them, if you would like to have them.

Rajanbab,
Looks like you are visiting Siolim. On the Siolim end of the Siolim bridge (colloquially called “Baan”) there is a newly constructed Sant Mandir dedicated to Swami Samarth. The area around it (fields, coconut trees “maaddan” etc) has the quintessential Goan flavour.
As a personal request, please try to photograph around that area. And if you already have then please post them whenever you feel appropriate. Thanks!
Regards,
Premanand.
