Goa is actually the name of a small state in South-West India, along the Arabian Sea, 600 km south of Bombay.
It's one of India's top holiday destinations with picturesque beaches of white coralline sand and palm trees. |
|  | Narrow country-side roads, paddy fields, small sleepy villages, white-washed churches and graceful colonial-era mansions: Goa remained a tiny provincial area with an unhurried lifestyle.
Goa is one of the most developed states with the highest per capita income in India. You won't see beggars or shanty towns like in other parts of the country. |
| | Goa's history is unique: it remained ruled by the Portuguese when almost all the rest of the country was under British power. The Portuguese left in 1961 so no wonder for the strong mediterranean and Christian heritage. However the majority of the Goans are Hindu, 30% are Roman Catholic and 5% are Muslim. |
