Sightseeing Places
You can enjoy the thrill of Goa through trekking the jungle and cool off in the plunge pool at the foot of the Dudhsagar Falls.
About a third of Goa's total land area is still covered by forests.
Besides forests, much of the remaining landscape is covered with plantations. Coconut, cashew and jackfruit grow in abundance. |

The carnival is held in February for three days and nights, when the legendary king Momo takes over the state and the streets come alive with music and color. The carnival is meant to be a feasting-drinking-merrymaking orgy just before the austere 40 days of Lent. Huge parades are organized throughout the state with bands, dances and floats out all night on the streets, and grand balls held in the evenings. |
