    Corpus Christi is a Latin term and etymologically it means the body of Jesus Christ. But you can find various places and also a festival that is known as Corpus Christi.

    The festival of Corpus Christi is celebrated on the Thursday that falls after Trinity Sunday. The festival is observed in the honour of the Eucharist.
