Goa’s 60-mile (100km) coastline, like a lace frill on the edge of a colorful, skirt are some of the most beautiful beaches in the world- dazzling stretches of golden sand edging the aquamarine expanse of the Arabian Sea. Goan beaches are magnificent and you will find them extremely difficult to leave.

Goa (pronounced /ˈɡoʊ.ə/ ( listen); Konkani: गोंय pronounced [ɡɔ̃j]) is India's smallest state by area and the fourth smallest by population. Located on the west coast of India in the region known as the Konkan, it is bounded by the state of Maharashtra to the north, and by Karnataka to the east and south, while the Arabian Sea forms its western coast.
Panaji is the state's capital, while Vasco da Gama is the largest city. The historic city of Margao still exhibits the cultural influence of the Portuguese, who first landed in the early 16th century as merchants, and conquered it soon thereafter. The Portuguese overseas territory existed for about 450 years, until it was annexed by India in 1961.

Old Goa has the credit of having a number of churches which have been included in UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. Among these are the ruins of St. Augustine Church which was perhaps the largest one in Goa . The Church of St Augustine was constructed by the joint efforts of 12 Augustian Friars after they arrived in Goa on 3rd September 1572 AD. They built the church on the Holy Hill at Old Goa. The construction of the church was completed by 1602 AD. A ban was imposed by the Portuguese government against the Augustines. The church and the convent thereafter were deserted.
The ruins of 46-metre high Bell Tower without the bell can be seen from some distance and attract attention of visitors. Five storied arched belfry tower built of laterite formed part of facade of the church facing east. This tower is one of the four towers of St. Augustine Church. The Church had eight richly adorned chapels and four altars and a convent with numerous cells. The ruins of chapels, altars and extensive convent with numerous cells can be seen even today around the tower. The bell was first placed in the Fort Aguada Light House, where it remained from 1841 to 1871 AD. Finally it was put in the church of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception at Panaji in 1871 AD and it is still in working condition.

The Shantadurga Kuncolienkarin temple is situated at Fatorpa near Cuncolim, Goa. Kuncolienkarin means 'from Cuncolim'. The temple of Kuncolienkarin was originally built in Cuncolim, where the local market stands today. During the 1570s, when the Portuguese ruled the area, the original temple in Cuncolim was destroyed, but the image of Shantadurga was taken away to Fatorpa, which was outside Portuguese territory in those days. Many myths and legends are associated with Shantadurga. When the Shantadurga temple was constructed, the gaunkars had difficulty installing the deity because it was too heavy and the priests could not carry it inside. They gathered and prayed for a solution. The goddess appeared in their dreams and told them to prepare the way; and that she would go herself. So, they decorated the floor with flowers. The following morning, the statue was found inside the temple and there were footprints on the petals.
