Very nice place to visit and know how St. Thomas came to India and see his skeleton of is right finger. This place is right on the sea banks and very quite and peaceful place to visit for spiritually connecting to God

Holy place having a finger of St.Thomas ..!! Will get a peaceful mind if you had a meditation there. And the traveling through boat is a highlight..! Reason for a name God's own country..!

The present Church is the renovated structure. Some remains of St.Marthoma is there.

Mar Thoma Shrine is one of the famous pilgrim as well as tourist destination in Kerala. It is here the remains of St. Thomas the apostle is preserved. On behalf of the 1950th Jubilee of the martyrdom of St. Thomas, this place has been granted Indulgence facilities for an year by Pope Francis recently. It will be worth visiting.

Church located in a scenic location..Calm and quite place..This church is historically an important one , but also can be visited as a tourist place where boating is available in the lake ..

Apostle of Jesus of Nazareth came here. His remains are kept here. It is called relics. The place also preserves the relics of other saints and Blessed of Indian church specially of Kerala. It is wonderful experience to visit the spot. The attendee lay woman is a reasonable woman having basic devotion. We feel pity to Syromalabar religious nuns who are serving in secular institutes don't priority to the preservation of the places of the apostle of Syromalabar church. Also we see Indian religious work only where there is monitory values and social recognitions. Kerala mass wine, host extra is made by secular companies because religious dont get much profit in it. Syromalabar church yet not learned to use the religious nuns for Evangelization and cooperative services of the diocese.

It was beautiful space ro spend time with family. But now it is not well maintained and no activity to do there

This part of India is important from the historical persepctive as this is where three important religions entered India. From a tourist perspective the place is a bit worn out from the outside though. Tip: Take the ro-ro ferry from Cherai beach to get here which will make your tour more worth it.

A great pilgrimage centre to visit. They have collections of holy remains of various saints. The church setting is excellent, just by the water front and boat services available.

Blessed Place, boating, fishing & a historical place

Peace Washroom aren't well maintained.

52 AD St. Thomas, Disciple of Jesus Christ came to Kerala. This church is located at the bank of River Periyar. The place has very natural beauty. The Church is well maintained.

One of the ancient churches in Kerala and authorities have been taking good care of it.

Nice place. Has relics of St. Thomas. Located near to sea having boat service.. Can have a round of old Muzuris town.. They also provide with a digital show about St. Thomas's life.. Peaceful place for prayers..

Marthoma pontifical shrine

Great and quiet place for peace of mind and a prayerful atmosphere... Here we can see the remainings of St Thomas which is securely kept in a locked room. Since we were only 3 friend for the visit, the good people there allowed us to visit the holy remaining of St Thomas. Other than the holy visit we can see a light & sound show which cost₹600 for a group of people and boating which costs the same.

Christian pilgrim centre.no crowd.naturally very beautiful place.

Peace full place.Full of +ve vibes. Natural atmosphere and infront of church Boat services and marine park

Historical church believed to be having the relics of St.Thomas. It is situated at a very scenic place by the side of Periyar river. Boating options used to be there before COVID. It is a very silent and solemn place for prayer and meditation
