Exploring the Most Popular Monuments on Goa Tours
Goa Mumbai beach tour is indeed an exciting way to celebrate your vacations. However, those restricting their visits to these splendid beaches often miss the opportunities to explore the historic monuments in the region. Goa in particular has a plethora of structures consisting of churches, temples, bungalows and forts. Here are some of the popular architectural marvels that are worth visiting on Goa tours.
Glorious Portuguese Forts
The rugged forts standing beside the coastline of Goa are the preserved heritage sites for tourists. These forts used to be of military importance to the Portuguese territory and they stand as historic evidences till date. Tourists on Goa tours are recommended to visit Chapora Fort, Aguada Fort, Terekhol Fort and Cabo De Rama Fort among others. All of these structures offer spellbinding views of the vast ocean space.
Charming Mansions and Bungalows
The imperial time of the bygone era can be re-experienced by paying visits to the mansions and bungalows while on Goa tours. These structures are perfect examples of how the European and the Indian architectural styles were mixed by the constructors at that time. Braganza Pereira Mansion and Miranda Mansion are two of the most popular of these buildings. Figueredo Mansion is built on a high plinth and is another charming example of imperial buildings.
Artistic and Distinct Religious Monuments
Even if you are in a festive mood on Goa Carnivals Tours, you shouldn’t miss paying visit to some of the most popular temples and churches in Goa. The period between the 16th and 19th centuries witnessed the construction of cathedrals and churches which have been among the highlights of Goa tours. The Church of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception, Church of Holy Spirit and Reis Magos Church are among the most notable ones.
Besides, there are many Hindu temples that represent the architectural excellence of the bygone centuries. Shri Mahalsa Temple, for example, is famous for its tower of lamps and beautiful woodwork.
