A Stroll Down History Lane

Imagine that it is the year 1593. The Portuguese, showing off their colonial power, constructed a church that would make angels jealous.

Step into the majestic Church of St. Francis of Assisi, where the whispers of the past still echo. Numerous souls have come and gone, civilizations have risen and fallen, and the tides have changed over its gates.

Built with all the elegance the Portuguese could generate, the church is dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment (yep, he was the first eco-warrior).

Imagine magnificent Baroque architecture, paintings so beautiful they would make the Sistine Chapel blush, and a sense of heavenly grandeur that’s unmatched.

Picture a cathedral by the sea that radiates chill and has a dramatic past similar to a Bollywood film. That’s the Church of St. Francis of Assisi in Diu, where the Arabian Sea beats waves like an enthusiastic drummer and history whispers mysteries.

This church, which dates back to 1593, is more stylish than a pair of mirrored spectacles and older than your grandmother’s recipe box.
