Reis Magos Fort

Newly restored Portuguese Fort

Reviewed By HarryHSR - New Delhi, India

The Reis Magos Fort is located in North Goa area, it is a small beautiful and very well maintained fort, must visit although its a little walk from the main road . Reis Magos fort was originally a defence fortess and then later used as a jail till 1993 ... once can see the jail cells still , after which it started crumbling. then the fort was restored in 2008 with great efforts from famous artist Mario Miranda and the Govt of Goa, and fort is now converted into a cultural centre, besides being used a tourist attraction. We had real good fun and clicked a lot of pictures here It was really worth a while spending time here at Reis Magos Fort Must visit if you have some spare time ... you wont regret n kids will also enjoy n learn

Mahalaxmi Temple

Reviewed By Sandy_JSR - Jamshedpur, India

Mahalaxmi temple is situated in the heart of the Panjim City. This around 200 years old temple has fascinating history, it is the first Hindu temple built in Goa with the contributions of devotees. Goddess Mahalakshmi is the presiding deity of the temple. In addition, temples of few other deities like Lord Ganesh, Shree Mahadev, Radha Krishna are also located within / adjacent to the Mahalaxmi temple. The temple is situated adjacent to congested main road, except roadside no other parking facility. The temple premise is not expansive; the entire temple premises are cleanly maintained. During South Goa trip, we visited the temple during afternoon time, when the temple premises was almost empty and hence could offer the puja peacefully. The ambience inside the temple was calm and blissful, we spent some divine time with the family. Necessary puja offerings like flower, sweets etc. are available at the small shops at the entry of the temple premises.
