    Prime location within the heart of the city. Also have sufficient parking space. Church and dining area are in the same compound. Dining area normally will be set in the third floor which spacious enough for a above average marriage function. Road accessibility is very good as the compound is surrounded by major roads in the city. Calm and quiet place

    (Translated by Google) St. Mary's Basilica is a basilica under the Archdiocese of Ernakulam-Angamaly in Ernakulam district. This church was established in the year 1112 under the Syro-Malabar Church. Also known as Anchukaimal Church or Nasrani Church The large and spacious cathedral has an altar used when John Paul II visited India on February 7, 1986. The altar depicts the birth, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Above the two front 68-foot-tall towers are statues of St. Peter and St. Paul. There is a statue of St. Thomas in the Bell Tower (88 feet high). There is also a depiction of Jesus' presentation to St. Thomas.

    St. Mary's Cathedral Ernakulam, This is one of the beautiful and biggest cathedral in kerala. A huge Cathedral Basilica (Archdiocese of Ernakulam). Paintings at the altar will definitely catch one's attraction, since such paintings are not that familiar to us Indians. Coming to the church premise there is a statue of St. Thomas along with Jesus on the Bell Tower. Then there is a small chapel beside it, and opposite to the church there is a perpetual adoration centre. Church can be easily accessible for differently abled people. Ample amount of car parking facility is there in the church yard. Toilet facilities available. The calm and serene ambience fills one with positive vibes.

    It is the Cathedral church of the Syro Malabar faithful of Catholic community under Ernakulam Angamaly Major Arch Diocese. Good place for prayer but he's a congested area with heavy traffic. Heavy nice from the road will disturb our prayers. Good parking area is available in the church compound. It's not recommended for a silent prayer
