places to see in goa(interesting ones)
Most of Goa’s larger towns are situated in the coastal belt where the Portuguese first settled, and their character was formed slowly through the centuries of Christian rule. They are small certainly by Indian standards, as the mainstream of Goan life flows largely in its villages.
Apart from well-known centers like Panjim and Old Goa, there are places like Margao and Vasco, Mapusa, and many other places of tourist attractions.
Margao and Vasco
Margao, the second largest town in Goa and the principal commercial center. There are some interesting places around Margao. About 3 Km. from the small village of Raia, which is one the road from Margao to the Borim Bridge, is the Rachol Seminary and Church. The old church dates from the early 1600's and the seminary has interesting architecture, a decaying library and interesting paintings of Christian characters done in Indian styles. This is not a tourist site so you must ask about looking around.
A few other towns are sprinkled around the territory: Vasco da gama is slowly developing into an industrial center: Marmagoa, Goa’s port, is one of India’s finest natural harbor’s; Mapusa in north is an interesting traditional market town.
