Welcome to the panoramic Panaji. Your holiday at Panaji or Panajim, which means 'the land that does not flood', will be full of energy and life.
An enchanting fusion of wooden vales with paddy fields lends Panaji a picturesque rustic look. You could go on an eco-friendly adventure tour to the Dudhsagar waterfalls, or to the temple of Tambi Surla if you want to get a better sense of the history and architecture of this erstwhile Portuguese colony. You could even decided to spend a day at Old Panaji, away from the main city where you should be sure to visit the local market for succulent fruit and freshly baited fish. Also, be sure to relax with a tall glass of Feni, that ubiquitous Panajin drink and chill out at your Indian Holiday in Panaji!
The city of Panaji is situated on the southern banks of river Mandovi and offers you a unique ambience for unwinding from the pressures of life. You could be bask under banana trees or get drenched in torrential tropical downpours. The Portuguese Baroque style buildings and old villas would definitely catch your eye and send you into musings of an era gone by. You would notice the Portuguese heritage in the paved squares, grand public buildings and old houses with protruding balconies and in the structure of the innumerable bars and cafes.
