About Goa
Famously known as "Pearl of the Orient" and a
"Tourist Paradise", the state of Goa is located on the
western coast of India in the coastal belt known as
Konkan.
The scenic beauty and the architectural wonders like its
temples, churches and old houses have made Goa a firm
favorite with travelers around the world.
Goa is much more than just beaches and sea. It is rich with
culture and some of the prettiest natural scenery that India
has to offer. According to Hindu mythology Lord Parshuram,
an incarnation
of Lord Vishnu is known to be the creator of Goa.
Over the centuries various dynasties have ruled Goa.
Rashtrakutas, Kadambas, Silaharas, Chalukyas,
Bahamani Muslims and most famously the Portuguese
have been rulers of Goa.
Goa was liberated by the Indian Army from Portuguese
colonization on December 19, 1961 and became a Union
Territory. On May 30, 1987 Goa was conferred statehood
and became the 25th state of the Indian Republic.
Being the meeting point of religions and cultures of East
and West over the centuries, Goa has a combination of
distinctive lifestyles quite different from the rest of India.
Hindu and Catholic communities make up most of the
population.
Goa boats of a long and an unbroken tradition of religious
harmony. The warm and tolerant nature of the Goans
allows them to celebrate and enjoy the festivals of various
religions such as Ganesh Chaturthi, Diwali, Christmas &
Easter with equal enthusiasm.
The vast expanse of the Arabian Sea on the west
forms the magnificent coastline for which Goa is justly
famous.
Terekhol (Tiracol), Mandovi, Zuari, Chapora, Sal and
Talpona are the main rivers which flow throughout the
state forming the inland waterways adding beauty to the
land. Behind these waterways lie the fishing villages
among the coconut groves.
Panaji (Panjim) is the state capital located on the banks
of the Mandovi river. The other major towns are
Vasco, Margao, Mapusa and Ponda. Goa has an
international/national airport located at Dabolim near
Vasco. An intra-state and inter-state bus network also
plays an important role in getting locals and visitors
alike in and around Goa.
The sea and rivers abound in seafood - prawns,
mackerels, sardines, crabs and lobsters are the most
popular with the locals and the visitors.
Along with English which is widely spoken all over Goa,
Konkani and Marathi are the spoken state languages.
The national language Hindi is also well understood in
most areas around the state.
Goan cuisine is a blend of different influences of culture.
The staple food in Goa is fish and rice, both among the
Hindus and the Catholics. Unlike the Christian food the
Hindu Goan food is not strongly influenced by the
Portuguese cuisine.
Goa is a major destination on the itinerary of international
and domestic tourists.
Besides the natural beauty, the fabulous beaches and
sunshine, travelers to Goa love the laid-back, peaceful,
warm and friendly nature of the Goan people.
Goa is well connected by airline services to most major
cities in India. All flights, national and international, to
and from Goa, operate from the Goa Airport at Dabolim.
