About
Located in the capital of Goa, Fontainhas is a mesmerizing area to view colourful lanes and houses. We learn how ‘Nova Goa’ developed as the new capital city after the older capital, Old Goa crumbled down with disease. We listen to stories about the most prominent monuments of the area. In addition, we visit a local house and one of the oldest bakeries in the city and try out some local delicacies.
