The travel tales continue to the city of beaches in India, "Goa".Well I would rather be honest in telling my experience of the city. So the moment one think of Goa, the images of beaches , alcohol and sand flashes. But with same images when I lived in the city, the experience was different.
As I stay in Bangalore, it is an overnight journey from here. So we opted to go by Volvo buses than taking a flight.We didn't want the trip to be too organized as our earlier trip to Mauritius was.
We took an overnight Volvo from http://www.ksrtc.in/site/ and the buses were really good and clean and worth the price.It is very easy to book tickets online too.
We stayed in a hotel "Bella Rosa (http://www.tripadvisor.in/Hotel_Review-g306992-d1116845-Reviews-Hotel_Bella_Rosa-Anjuna_Bardez_Goa.html)" in North Goa and it was very near to the beaches.The best mode of transport in Goa is actully a two- wheeler vehicle (obviously if you have a license to drive!!)and it is very easy to get one.
The places to visit include beaches and forts. The popular ones are :
Vagator Beach
Anjuna Beach
Calangute Beach
Baga Beach
Also a flea market on Thursday at shores (almost!!) of Anjuna Beach to just shop around is a good option. All sort of funky jewelry, clothes etc.Though being an Indian, u'll not find it anything different.
Agora Fort near Vagator Beach is an awesome place. The view from the top is breathtaking specially at sunset.
And last but not the least, the most famous spot in Goa is Tito's Lane. Its a great Bar & Restaurant which opens all night with great music, food and alcohol.
And I would definitely end my post with P.S. as always
So here you go!!!
P.S. If you have are in a group while visting Goa then superrr else beware of time as found it really deserted at night. Specially if your hotel is lil away from the beaches. ( This P.S. dedciated to all girls having plans to visit GOA!!!)
