Tourist Places/Attractions in Ernakulam District
 
Santa Cruz Cathedral Bascillica, Fort Kochi
 

The first European church in India by Portuguese Franciscan friars. Originally built in wood and named Santo Antonio in the 16th Century. It was restored in 1779 by the Protestant Dutch, converted to an Anglican church by the British in 1795 and is at present governed by the Church of South India. Vasco da Gama was buried here in 1524 before his remains were moved to Lisbon, Portugal. The tombstone still remains.
