Forts | Architecture

A collection of my personal favourite places (of cultural & heritage significance) to explore, in addition to the beaches, in Goa (: ( I'd suggest to crosscheck the days and time of availability that they may be subjected to before you go )
Panoramic views of the adjoining Vagator Beach and overlooks the Arabian Sea from all angles. The fort is located on top of a hillock with slopes on all sides and stands as beautiful ruins now.

What stands out and remains the showstopper even today is the four-storey lighthouse erected in 1864 that overlooks splendid views of the Sea.

Glorious view of sunset over Goa. The location ensures that it's not too crowded and remains one of the less explored Chapels of Goa.

The Architect, Gerard de Cunha, creates a ship-like structure to house all the "goodness in Goan architecture" which would otherwise be lost. Like a modern-day Noah setting out with his special arch, the Museum takes you on an eventful voyage, showing you "Goa in the context of the world".
