Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

San Thome Basilica in Chennai is a revered religious site, showcasing impressive neo-Gothic architecture. Dedicated to St. Thomas, the apostle, it holds historical and spiritual significance.
You will appreciate the serene atmosphere, beautiful stained glass windows, and the tomb of St. Thomas. It's a peaceful place for reflection and a glimpse into the city's Christian heritage.

San Thome Church, or more commonly known as St. Thomas Cathedral Basilica is a beautiful church located in Chennai India. The exterior of the Basilica looks nice with its very tall spires, and the interior is also quite nice and spacious. This Cathedral is a very historical and religious place because it has a tomb built over the remains of Saint Thomas, one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ.

I visited this church on a footsteps of the apostle tour, its pretty incredible that through church tradition that one of the apostles brought the gospel to india and was martyred here, which you must visit the shrine also which is on a hill overlooking the city of Chennai (amazing view).
The church is a gleaming white church and typical catholic architecture. I'm glad I saw it along with the tomb which is diagonally behind the church in its own building. We can honor Thomas for bringing the message of God's saving grace through Jesus to india 2000 yrs ago!!

Located not so far from the marina beach is this gem of a church. In pristine white and peaceful as expected. We reached there on Sunday morning as mass was about to end. Please check mass timings if you want to get inside as there can be a lot to people. Behind church is crypt chapel which we didn’t visit. 100/100 I would recommend.

The fact that this church is built on the tomb of the fascinating Apostle St Thomas really got me excited about visiting this place. St Peter's in Rome is built on the tomb of St Peter. The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Spain - on the tomb of St James. And here we are - St Thomas! He travelled far to India and spent a number of years on the west coast of the subcontinent where there were prominent Jewish communities. He was later killed on the east coast in what is now Chennai.
The Basilica built by Portuguese is beautiful but, of course, different from European churches. One day we entered it during prayers and singing and the atmosphere was unforgettable. Indian custom calls for respectfully taking your shoes off when you enter. Next to the church - take place outdoor masses and processions. Across the parking lot there is a nice religious store with souvenirs and religious paraphernalia.
The Tomb of St Thomas can be entered through the separate building behind the church. There you go down the stairs and actually visit the tomb which is below the altar in the basilica.
The entrance to both the church and the tomb with the relic are free.

Coming from Europe where there are so many beautiful churches and cathedrals, this one seems a bit ordinary. However, in a city that does not really have too many stellar tourist attractions, this church is on the must-see list. Moreover, it is interesting to note that Indian Catholics seem much more devout than European ones.

Come to see the Church, where you will see Jesus on the cross robed in a distinctly Indian way. Also there is a relic of St. Thomas the Apostle, and Our Lady of Mylapore. St. Francis Xavier once prayed in front of this image of Our Lady, when he was in Madras.

I am not usually a fan of churches, but this is susprisingly good. It is one of the only three churches in the world built on a tomb of a disciple. The building is imposing and it is lovingly located on the same street where a Muslim mosque and Hindhu temples can be found, talk about multi-cultural!

A beautiful church but wow what a history. One of only three remaining churches in the world built over the tomb of one of Jesus' disciples.

Friend, the church is not nearer to Elliots beach known as Besant Nagar beach.
Please note the following differences:
1. Santhome church is nearer to Light house and to Marina beach and it is 200 metres from Marina beach
Santhome church is 8 kilometres from Elliots beach
2. Anna Velankanni church is nearer to Elliots beach and Annai Velankanni church is 8 kilometres from Marina beach.
Look at the differences and make your trips accordingly
