 Goa is located on the
western coast of Indian Peninsula and separated from Maharashtra by
the Terekhol River in the North, Karnataka in the South, the Western
Ghats in the east, and Arabian Sea in the west.
The virgin beaches, fun-loving people, mouth- watering delicious
cuisine, pretty whitewashed chapels and churches, the sleepy little
villages and the rice fields are some of the major attractions that
make Goa the paradise for tourists.
Situated on the western coastline of India, Goa is sandwiched between
the states of Maharashtra and Karnataka. Goa is split into two
districts- North Goa and South Goa.
Being near to the sea, Goa enjoys a maritime climate, with April and
May being very hot.
In the local dialect, Goa is often referred to as "Goa Dourada,"
(meaning "Golden Goa") because of its beaches, forts, churches,
waterfalls, seminaries, and caves. The beaches such as Dona Paula,
Calangute, Anjuna, Colva, Miramar, and Vagator can be compared with
the best beaches around the world.
In Panaji, one must visit the church dedicated to our Lady of
Immaculate Conception, and the Chapel of St. Sebastian. The Goa State
Museum, the Secretariat, and the statue of Abbe Faria in the capital
are other attraction of Goa. Goa offers 5-star to budget hotels to
paying guest as accommodation. |
