Church in ruins at Ross Island

As you explore Ross Island by foot, you will come across the ruins of a Presbyterian Church.


The entrance to this church built in European style stands tall amidst the lush green tropical trees. But, as one enters the church, it is amazing to note its sheer emptiness inside as most of of the structure has given way to ruins.


Not so far away on the slopes towards the sea is yet another church structure, but its last remaining wall has been taken over by the roots of the Banyan tree.

  2. Thank you Sunil! I am sure there will be some similarities between Cambodia and the Andamans...given that they are located around the same latitude in the tropics...
