Goa

Goa is a city in India which was formerly a Portuguese possession in West India, lying between the Western Ghâts and the sea-coast, 250 miles South-East of Bombay. It was captured in 1510 by Albuquerque. Old Goa, the former capital, has fallen from a populous and wealthy city into utter decay, its place being taken by Nova Goa or Panjim, on the Mandavi, 3 miles from the coast.
