The beaches are long, endless with white sands and blue skies. With the sounds of the waves hitting the shore, you are forced to leave all your thoughts behind and enjoy the moment.
The architecture is highly influenced by the Portuguese. However my opinion is that, some of the people really are unaware of the treasure they have and have not maintained their heritage very well.Every corner of Goa is blessed with a huge, majestic, ancient church. Inside the churches, the sounds of the outside world are left behind. There is a calm and quite breeze that allows you to share your moment with God! The beauty of the churches is such that you would definitely want to spend some time there.
Goa also has two or three forts…. Extremely beautiful and a must see!
But if you are looking for intense travelling … Goa is really not the place. It’s the place to relax and enjoy life.
Dona Paula is one of the biggest attractions in Goa. This beach is associated with a romantic myth. Its spooky past attracts tourists from all over India and abroad. History goes to say that this beach is named after Dona Paula de Menzes, daughter of a viceroy in colonial India who threw herself off the cliff, because she was not permitted to marry a local fisherman. The myth goes further to state that Dona Paula emerges from the moonlit waves wearing only a pearl necklace.…. I loved the drive to get there. Goa is green.
Oh.. and when you are in Goa, don’t forget to try the Goan delicacies !! A definite visit to Souza’s resturaunt on the Callangute beach – is one of the oldest and most popular resturaunts. Its best go to early, as Souza’s is popular amont tourists and residents alike. The music and ambience of this open beach side resturaunt is such, that is just calls you to come back.
