One of the most important Hindu monuments in North
Goa is the temple dedicated to Sri Kalika situated in the Gillage Kansarpal
near Assonora, a few kilometers away from the Mapusa town. The Daivadnya
Brahmans are the main devotes of this deity. A huge gold "Kalash"
atop the dome of the temple beckons thousands of devotees and inquisitive
visitors to this otherwise secluded place.
The temple is dedicated to Goddess Kali, which is the Rudra form of Goddess
Durga. The temple represents a fine blend of aesthetics and architectural
designs.

Baga, 10-km west of Mapusa, is basically an extension of
Calangute; even the locals are unable to decide where ends and the other
begin.

Crouched in the shadow of a Portuguese fort on the
opposite, northern side of the headland from Vagator, Chapora, 10-km from
Mapusa, is a lot busier than most north coast villages.

Chapora fort was built by the Adil Shah of Bijapur on the
southern headland of the Chapora River. It was also known as "Shahpur"
and is now mostly ruined

Barely a couple of kilometres of cliff tops and parched
grassland separate Anjuna from the southern fringes of its nearest
neighbour, Vagator, a desultory collection of ramshackle farmhouses and
picturesque old Portuguese bungalows
