The Goa / West India / Goa region


Goa, the former Portuguese colony is one of the most relaxed places in India.
Variously known as "Rome of the East", "Tourist Paradise" and "Pearl of the Orient", the state of Goa is located on the western coast of India.
Goa is a delightfully picturesque tropical paradise, with secluded golden beaches, gleaming white-washed houses and amiable, easy-going people.
Goa has a charming blend of Indo-European architecture and cultural influences. The rich heritage of Goa is manifested in the brilliant expressions of Goan traditional folk arts, dance, music, drama, literature, colourful pageants, feasts and festivals, majestic temples, churches and mosques.
Goa has it all, sun, sand and sea. An unique blend of Latin and Oriental, incredibly rich in monuments and historical sites, dazzling variety of exotic flora and fauna, lush green hinterland, rivers that offer water adventure sports that will thrill you beyond expectation.
Goa has a timeless charm. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that whilst creating a delicate synthesis of various cultures, it has retained its inherent soul.
Goa, certainly is a land of dreams and romance a timeless world of gentle hospitable people and unhurried activity
