The Basilica of Bom Jesus is located in Goa, India, and is part of the Churches and convents of Goa UNESCO World Heritage Site.The basilica holds the mortal remains of St. Francis Xavier. The church is located in Old Goa, which was the capital of Goa in the early days of Portuguese rule.

Bom Jesus' (literally, 'Good (or Holy) Jesus') is the name used for the Ecce Homo in the countries of Portuguese colonization. The Jesuit church is India?s first minor basilica, and is considered to be one of the best examples of baroque architecture in India.

This is one of the oldest churches in Goa and in India. The floor is of marble inlaid with precious stones. Apart from the elaborate gilded altars, the interior of the church is simple. The main altar holds a large statue of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits)

I have been visit Goa with my family every 2 years. It is about an hours flight and a very picturesque but tiring drive for 8 hrs. Apart from this famous heritage Church there are many churches in Goa worth visiting.
