Goa is India's smallest
state in terms of area and the fourth smallest in
terms of population.
It is located on the west coast of India, in the
region known as the Konkan, and is bounded by the
state of Maharashtra to the north, Karnataka to the
east and south and the Arabian Sea binds it to the
west. Panaji is the state's capital, and
Vasco-da-Gama its largest city. The second
largest and most historic city is Margao with the
most western Portuguese culture.
Portuguese merchants first landed in Goa in the 15th
century, and annexed it soon after. The Portuguese
colony existed for about 450 years, until it was
taken over by India in 1961.
Internationally renowned for its beaches, Goa is
visited by hundreds of thousands of foreign and
domestic tourists each year, and has become one of
the most popular holiday destinations for European
travellers, particularly in the Northern hemisphere

Besides beaches, Goa is also known for its world
heritage architecture including the Basilica of Bom
Jesus. Goa also has rich flora and fauna, owing to
its location on the Western Ghats range, which are
classified as a biodiversity hotspot.
