THE CHAPEL OF OUR LADY OF ROSARY

The Chapel of Our Lady of Rosary dating back to the 17th century. Deceptively plain from without, it is a gorgeous feast to the eye as one steps in. Here is devotional poetry at its best in breath-taking wood work. The ceiling is abloom with rose-petals of a hundred hues and aglow with golden cherubs bringing benediction. Stories from the lives of the blessed saints find glorious illustration on the lateral walls of the Apse, speak of golden originality. It is perhaps the best piece of master craft in wood built by the Portuguese in India in the 16th Century.
