Mae De Deus Church, A celestial drive by view of one of
the most beautiful Churches in Goa, A rare neo Gothic architecture, the pride of people of Saligao village, designed by our architects and built by our own masons, brick layers, artisans, plumbers, laborers, the whole gamut of construction workers from our native Goan populace, which was finally completed in 1873. It was difficult then for our Colonials, due to long journeys to import laborers from Portugal.
