Goa in India is popularly known as the Riviera of the Est. Goa is a little territory in the western part of India, with a strong influence from the days when it was a Portuguese colony. At almost any time of the year you can see a number of foreigners walking in colorful beach clothes. The locals, after a good day's work, including an afternoon siesta, close shops early and relax at home. Really, it is a place for relaxation and having fun.
