From a small beginning, Goa has risen to a prominent position on the World Tourism map due to its ideal tourism profile.The Small former Portugese enclave of Goa is still one of India's most touristically important places. It combines old Portugese architecture with a Portuguese flavour to the lifestyle which somehow manages to exist even 25 years after India took over Goa. Officially Goa is governed with two other Portuguese coastal enclaves, Daman and Diu, which were taken over at the same time. |
