Sun, sea and the sand combine to make Goa an ideal place to rest. With its 100 Km of coastline, it is a land of Golden beaches set against a backdrop of coconut palms and green rice fields. This former Portuguese colony offers some of the best un-spoilt beaches in South East Asia. With white washed buildings and Portuguese churches a Mediterranean atmosphere still exists here. Under the Portuguese it rapidly grew to rival Lisbon and many huge churches convents and monasteries were built. However, with the rise of British Dutch and French supremacy at sea, the Portuguese influence declined and so did Old Goa. Panjim is India's smallest state capital and perhaps one of the most pleasant. It retains a strong Portuguese flavor, and parts of the town have narrow winding streets. There are numerous cafes and small bars; many still have their signs in Portuguese.Rest of the day free for individual activities.
