There are few other holiday destinations in India, that are as much interesting as Goa, the south-western beach destination of India. Crossing into this palm-fringed state is like tresspassing in an invisible boundary, where you just cannot save yourself from having fun, so different is this strip of Portuguese India from the rest of our hugely British-influenced country. Whitewashed, baroque churches dot the landscape prettily, and the little grottos in the manicured gardens of picturesque villas create an impressive scenery. Let us take you deeper into the richness of this land, where Goa's other denizens abound - the wildlife that hides in the lush forests and the euphonic birds that crowd the estuaries.

It is a land that pulsates to the beats of Goan psychedelic trance, where moods are set high by shots of 'feni', Goa's national drink. Unleash yourself in the rainy day and indulge in the kaleidoscopic state of Goa, which beckons tourists in the monsoon for a marvellous holiday. You can luxuriate or revel in the simplest of pleasures in exotic resorts..refresh yourself in the invigorating and rejuvenating monsoon rain..then satiate your culinary passion with an experience, perhaps unmatched along the long coastal range of South India. So what are you waiting for? Pack your bags and leave for a state that has been created articulately, only for you. Spend a holiday in a land that is as magical as Aladdin's Lamp, as unique as the Great China Wall.
