The Great Church of Old Goa Sé Cathedral in Old Goa is one of the largest churches in Asia, raised by the Portuguese and dedicated to St Catherine of Alexandria. Begun in 1562 and largely completed by 1619, its whitewashed Tuscan facade and vast vaulted interior speak to Goa's era as capital of Portuguese India.
