The fort and the facade, an armored Warrior and the entrance of the foyer to your first step into the past of Goa’s rich and eco-friendly treasury and you know you are there. You are about to begin a memorable journey, one that will carry in your soul for all time.
Castles are associated with moats and palaces with armored turrets, but your glimpse into the glory of a richly textured past is about to begin at the entrance to a sedately frozen warrior whose facial expression is not only friendly but positively benign.

A gently rounded turret leads off the swan bedecked little gateway. As you near the much photographed warrior you see a low beamed structure lushly ornamented with floral designs and elephants bearing festooned pillars upon their backs.
