This Is The Biggest Church In All Of India 🇮🇳 Swiss Family Travels The World 

Christianity came to Kerala a lot earlier than Europe.

Apriciate Kerala people for maintaining such a big Church very clean.

കേരളത്തിൽ ആലപ്പുഴ പുന്നമട കായലിൽ വള്ളംകളി അടുത്ത ആഴ്ച നടക്കുന്നു ലോകത്തിൽ ഏറ്റവും മനോഹരമായ ജലോത്സവം ആണ് അത് കാണാൻ പോകണം

The Hindu temple that you crossed in this video is Vadakumnathan Temple. One of the oldest and the most important Shiva temples in India. You should visit that next. Although they might not let non-Hindus inside but I bet you can film inside if you persuade the devaswom officers a bit. It's a beautiful and ancient temple that is at least a 1000 years old.

Its not safe to walk near the side of road with these kids. Especially vehicles are going at fast speed.

Beef eating is made a political issue by a particular political party in India. That particular political party don't have very strong foothold in Kerala. That's the reason why eating beef is not a big deal in Kerala. But in other states of India, don't even dare to utter the word beef. No one can say what will happen to you. There is one state in the northeastern part of India called Nagaland where beef eating is not an issue apart from that it is a dangerous subject.

Two churches in Kerala dedicated to Saint George.Edathua Saint George Church and Puthupalli Saint George Church (more than 8 centuries old)

Naruneendi = Indian Sarsaparilla. It's used in root beers in the West. Sarsaparilla has many medicinal properties and is widely consumed in Kerala

Mostly old churches are built in the shape of cross. That's why we can see 3 entrances. My parish church is also built like that. It's almost 600 years old.

You will be surprised to know that Trichur has the maximum nos of Rolls-Royce owners in Kerala , and also some.of them.own aircrafts and helis..you should visit Shobha city on the outskirts to the opulence

The largest church in India is in Hyderabad 300,000. Wonderful church they feed the poor and have hospital for the poor.

Narunendi is a herb that is actually Indian sarsaparilla. It's medicinal properties makes it very popular in Kerala

St. Thomas Church, Palayoor is the oldest church out of Europe since 54AD go and visit

True , as u said Hindus dont pay attention to their religion much like foreign Christians around the world .But every Muslim do respect their religion and stick to it . Only Indian Christians too serious abt their religion..Either secular or orthodox, ppl do respect humanity is the key factor

Greetings from koyikod (calicut ) the most traditionally rich and beautiful place on earth...❤❤🐔🐔

Namaste from Kerala 🇮🇳. Kochi is the most beautiful city in India

You should visit Athirapilly Waterfalls and Muziris Heritage Project next. They're near Thrissur and they're quintessential locations to visit during an India trip

Naruneendi is medicine root ( naruneendi roots) boiling with sugar syrup..it's cooling for our body heat.

Thanks for showing our basilica church😍.. Lot of love from Kerala ❤

Thrissur is a busy town with lots of vehicles and narrow roads so be careful while crossing the road or walking by the sodes... High speed buses in thrissur usually dont mind people you have to take care of yourself Have a happy stay in kerala❤️

Yes yoga is taken seriously. Ayurveda is from India right?

Wow! That's awesome. Never knew about this church though I am in Kerala. By the way saying that Christianity is from Europe is an abomination to us because we fought with the British to uphold our traditional christian indigenous ways and we won. Moreover, we knew Christ 1000 years before europeans so we are proud of it. Also because of our access to the middle east due to supply of spices since ancient times helped in fostering Christian values as many of our Bishops still to this day are from Damascus and other close areas.

What a beautiful church! Thanks for sharing, enjoyed watching this video! I remember having been to the Notre Dame church in Luxembourg and Paris. In the case of the latter, the exterior was as interesting as the interior! The St. Peter's Basilica in Rome (the Vatican City) was breath taking! Jesus is taken off the cross and is placed in his mother's arms - is something I see in many churches, but the one in Vatican is carved by Michelangelo - LA PIETA, and such a masterpiece! Brought tears to my eyes. The guide explained that it was only his "visiting card" before he churned out his legendary work. The idol of Jesus that was perched over the crib is the very famous Infant Jesus. But of course, the Hindus will be the only ones to talk about others' food so liberally. I have had many Kerala Hindu, Christian and Muslim friends. I have never seen the Malayali Hindu families eat beef or support eating beef in any manner. But I have known a Syrian Orthodox family that doesn't eat beef at all. They told me that many Malayali families in their denomination do not eat beef as they have descended from Brahmins! In my personal experience, my grandfather never allowed us to use the word. So, it is not such a light matter as some are making it out to be. But in the north-eastern states, I am told, many Hindus eat beef too. I know a few Hindu restaurants in the southern part cook pork as well. But many of them will tell you that they only cook it but do not eat it. Some even have separate vessels for the pork. In Karnataka (I think in other places also may be), one can often find "Hindu Military Hotels". That specifically means that one can find there chicken, mutton and pork also, cooked in genuinely indigenous style, with a helping of rice, idli, dosae and ragi balls. (every other meat but beef). India is an intriguing land, even to me, who is as Indian (Bharatiya) as possible. Enjoy it, that makes me so happy as I staunchly believe GUEST IS GOD - ATITHI DEVO BHAVA. Atithi stands for one who has no date or appointment. So we generally drop into the houses of our friends and family without intimation or appointment. Such a guest is a God to us!! It is this beautiful theory that you see at play when you go to the various regions of the Subcontinent! 🙏🙏

We respect christian nd also celebrate christmas

the interior of this basilica is so gorgeous

Biggest church in India is in Meghalaya...

Alapuzha nehuru trophy vallam kaly agsuste 12

Church is very beautiful thanks for showing 😊

Hahaha..Sri Lanka claims Ayurveda 😂, ain’t that cute ☺️ But it’s WRONGG. Nothing in Sri Lanka is from Sri Lanka. 😊 Kothu Parotta, Buddhism, Appam (Hoppers) everything is from India. Like obviously

Always ur daughter is accompany with you...I noticed 2 , 3 times...Lovable daughter😊

8:25 vadakumnatha temple😊

Wow super exploration moonshine. Thank you so much for this video ❤❤❤

What you saw in the church are relics of Christian Saints. What you saw on the wall are the 14 stations of crucification.

Good to know that you are from Basel. Basel Mission played a major role in the economic and social transformation of northern Kerala.

Naruneendi/nannari is made from roota of a herbal climber plant . Then boiling the root repeatedly and later condensing it some jaggery/sugar .

I thought the SE cathedral in Goa was the largest but it is only ranked 3rd on a article I saw

Oh, what a very lovely thumbnail...a beautiful Swiss family in front of a magnificent church. Good shot, Sir.

Christianity reached India in 70 ad 1954 years one thousand nine hundred and fifty four years before even the British and Europeans who were pagans had accepted Christianity😂 its a fact deal with it and haters now a days blindly accuse us for following a british religion 🤦‍♂️and tell us British Brought Christianity😂the cross that saint Thomas carried is still kept preserved in the cathedral In Pakistan🇵🇰 because Christianity was Also preached in present day Pakistan too in 70 AD❣️to be specific The British started accepting Christianity around 600 AD 530 years after while Christianity was already in India before Europe

How was the Naruneendi dink taste like liccorice ?

Thanks! Another good video - keep um coming!!!

All Kerala Catholic Churches will have visual representations of the roasary painted or sculpted along its walls.

Linda igreja 😊

As far as what I know and seen is the empty crib is occupied on the eve of 24th Dec...

Ahh so you are from Basel? Basel 2 framework of banking is from there I guess. Thank you for showing me this church. Never heard about this church eventhough I'm from Kerala.

Try Bharat Hotel in Thrissur (for breakfast especially),, you will taste amazing traditional Kerala breakfast.

✝️✝️✝️

5:10 If someone from Kerala says they don't take religion seriously they mean the opposite, they indeed take religion seriously. They just want to look so cool and liberal and progressive, but they secretly worship God in many different ways. On the flipside, if you come across folks who says they take religion seriously then it means they don't actually give a damn! In order for you to understand this weird phenomenon you'll need to spend few years at least here in Kerala. lol.

i dont think this church is the biggest in kerala , you missed out that church in edapally ernakulam kochi

I think largest Church of Asia is in nagaland, India not in Kerala

You should come visit north east india (Nagaland) here you will find Asia biggest church where 95% are Christian

Visit athirapilly waterfalls in thrissur,

It definitely not the biggest Chruch in Kerala, not even close 😂😂

Please visit Kozhikode, the food capital of Kerala. There please visit Calicut Paragon restaurant and enjoy their renowned Chicken biriyani.

@06:52 your son seems like walking a bit away. while vlogging please take care. Rickshaws and lorries sometimes are reckless, also no places are totally crime free. Hope I am not scaring u. Love from Kerala.

That is a beautiful church!

Thrissur is an ancient religious center but people are not as religious as Tamil Nadu here.

It is a very beautiful church. Thank you for showing it.

I have been watching all your vlogs. I have not missed even one. You are getting better with time. My regards to you and your lovely family 👪

Cool, never heard of this church of known of its existence.

pls have an eye over the kids,obv u does,felt like saying it..enjoy ❤️❤️

Saint George shrine.

Beautiful church. But I know you are not religious

In Europe now with high inflation people are minding their stuff. People buying clothes in Charity Shops and thrift stores. Throw away culture definitely a thing of the past.

Jesus Christ bless you and your family❤

Having been brought up Catholic, I am used to all of the churches and the stations of the cross. I find the Hindu and Bhudist temples the most beautiful and inviting. There are some quite elaborate mosques as well - some of the most beautiful architecture!❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you! BTW, is your name Ian or Yves?

As a Hindu myself, I can say that Hindus don't respect their religion mostly as you correctly mentioned. Most of the temples in south India, you will find them empty mostly(excluding the more popular one's). Also this might sound controversial but Hindus are the easiest one's who convert to other faiths because they are the least religious. Anyways whatever happens, happens for good. I liked the vlog.

Been following you people since long time,,, take care,, especially your kids,,, May God Bless You. 🌹

Hi I am from India West Bengal in Kolkata new town 😊❤

The first guy you asked about the bible tower may not be from that area.

Thanks for showing around...a very huge church

Just went there to pray and confession and RU-vid recommended this video

Hey , You should have gone to Velankanni Chuech in Tamil Nadu . its the biggest religious church in India.

Thank you very much for showing us this most wonderful century old church. Especially after seeing the most amazing interior of the church, it felt like it was the most legitimate place for Christians to worship in India. A truly amazing religious fervor was building up inside the church.

Come waynad it's beautiful place

The other tall chruch that you spotted from the Bible tower is my school. It's a part of Lourdes Church

It is a syrup made out of Saraparilla roots just like the root beer flavor. But root beer has lot of sugar and very less of the actual root flavor. As I have sid before Kerala is a backward state with no compassion for any animal lives. Goa is the same. All western countries, alomost all asian countries like China, Japan, Korea etc fall into the same category of backward countries when it comes slaughter of billions of animals every day. Many states in India evolved in the most conscious way to develop the most elaborate,exquisite and delicious vegetarian cuisine. South Korean farmers are protesting aginst the ban of dog meat being proposed by their govt. The world is a terrible hell for all the other species because of humans. BTW, during your short visit in India, I hope you would make a choice for vegetarianfood and encourage and motivate your viewers to make a compassionate choice.

Kerala has ancient history of Christianity, the earliest in India and including the world. But you would have to to search for it, there are Pre-1500 AD church's and Mosques pre 800AD. There is ancient history of the Arabs, Jews, East Africans, Chinese (not long), Portuguese , Danish, French, Dutch, British.

Visit in Ponnani

Valaikkum Mussalam ❤

Poles in front of churches are called "kodimaram" it is used to hoist flags during feasts or special days.

Hindus generally embrace secular and open-minded values, which is why the two Hindu-majority countries in the world, India and Nepal, are known for their commitment to being secular democracies. In contrast, some of our neighboring countries, such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Bhutan, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Maldives, and Sri Lanka, have become Islamic and Buddhist nations.

❤❤❤❤
