Portugese fort

Cities, Photography, Travel

This is going to be my last post about my trip, most like all are bored of them by now. BUT  every now and them there might be a picture from here and there.

This is the largest and the best-preserved Portuguese bastion in Goa and was built in 1609-12, to control the entry into the river Mandovi and to protect Old Goa from potential enemy attacks.


Strategically located at the estuary of the river Mandovi, this fort was constructed in 1612 as a guard against invasions from the Dutch and the Marathas. The walls of this fort are 5 metres high and 1.3 metres wide. Little surprise then that this remains to be the only fort that was not conquered by any invaders during the 450 yearlong rule of the Portuguese empire.

The nature has some beautiful details for us, if we keep out ice open. I really like how the light comes through the icicles.
