Tourists, with cameras, at the exit of the Bom Jesus Basilica in Goa
This is a view of the green opening right in front of the structure of the Basilica of Bom Jesus in old Goa. It is a popular place for tourists, who come to visit this historic shrine (which is more than 400 years old (being consecrated in the year 1605) and which contains the preserved body of Saint Francis Xavier, a missionary who did a lot to spread Christianity in Asia). The church looks incredible from the front, and a number of tourists try to capture the visage, so you can see all these people spread in front of the church, taking photos.
