This image of Goa has taken a special angle in everyone's heart. You think of a place you can visit with a group of friends or loved ones, then think no longer , it’s just the perfection.

But that is just not it, Goa has a lot to offer beyond the beaches!

Goan food   Try to taste the local goan cuisines if possible, they do it differently every time. Try visiting a few bistro and restaurants. We recommend that you all visit the popular restaurants like the Ritz Classic, Mum’s Kitchen, The Black Sheep Bistro, Destination One, Down the Road, etc.

Celebrations    Goans have many entertainment options with many festivals hosted by Goa Tourism. They have the Food and Culture Festival and the Goa Coconut Festival and Cashew in April. They were both at Campal Grounds, Panjim which ensures an evening light with their list of bands, local artists and a host of food options to choose from. It is exciting to see so many local talent making real Goan rhythms and performing on the authentic goan beats.

Karting    Yes, go-karting. Walk along the coast of Anjuna and you will have a karting area directly opposite the restaurant called ‘Pink Villa.’ Make sure you pay attention as you may miss this one. Wowww. They certainly have wonderful surprises for you. However, please make sure you are familiar with this game or it could lead to injury.

Colourful houses and Goan heritage    The treasure trove of the capital city of Panaji, on the banks of the ancient river Orem, is particularly impressive. This old district or Latin Quarter has a completely different atmosphere from the hustle and bustle of the big city, which looks like a Mediterranean, with narrow streets and hanging balconies of ancient Portuguese style houses. The old local splendour of the area is preserved because most of the houses in the area, built in the old Portuguese style are still painted in the traditional colours of pale yellow, green or blue, and have a roof with red tiles. hanging balconies.

You should visit Urban Café India which is a coffee shop at the Old Quarters hostel. Their decoration is so pure that you will love its simplicity. Apart from this, there is the Panjim Inn Café with this ancient world charm where time stands still and you feel like you want to stay there forever. Their wooden furniture is decorated and they feel completely Goan! These can be perfect for casual dating with friends or the best option if you want to get acquainted and read from a book.

Goan culture    Goa is rich in culture and its literature as well as the Goa State Central Library in Panaji, the Goa museum and the Gitanjali Art gallery, in Fontainhas. The library had a wide collection of magazines and newspapers for citizens to read. Near the library there is a museum that specialises in Goan history. You will easily spend a few hours going through a series of household products, printing presses, furniture  displayed at the museum. Gitanjali Art Gallery is popular for its style with paintings, art books and intricate pieces of art.
