5 Reasons to explore/visit Goa in Monsoons

Goa is one of the favorite destinations for travelers & tourists, and many of the smart travelers chose to visit Goa during Monsoons. Do you wonder why? Let's check out this Photo Journey and know 5 main reasons for this.Best Deals - One of the main reasons for choosing Monsoons to visit Goa is TravellingCamera's favorite reason - 'Off Season'. Off Season means a lot of things but the main one is best deals - Cheap flights, great deals in best hotels and lot more. In Monsoons, you can afford 4-5 star property for as much you would pay to a normal hotel during peak season. On top of that, there are plenty of discounts for various things like car/bike hire, restaurants, discotheques etc. Cost for flights just gets down to 1/3rd or even less, Hotels in South Goa are even cheaper & here I am talking about all best properties of Goa - like Zuri White Reort, Radisson, Taj etc.Less crowded - I know different folks interpret it in different ways. I know folks who love to be in Goa when it's crowded. And also seen the same set of folks cribbing about the type of crowd. Without saying much, I would say that it's probably the best time for folks who like to be at peace when they travel. Of course, you get very good access to beaches and the sea. Good weather - What comes to your mind, when we say Monsoons in Goa? Don't spend your energies in imagining Goa in monsoons :). It's beautiful with soothing breeze folioing you all around. Fields and beaches are lush green, which makes the place more beautiful. Cleaner beaches - Goan beaches are much cleaner than usual, because of some obvious reasons. This makes your exploration 10 times better. After all, you visit Goa for these beautiful beaches and what can better if you see them like what you expect.Goan Monsoons - Goan Monsoons are very special and offers some brilliant experiences. The rains are very light and you feel like getting drenched in Goan drizzles. These rains encourage you to drive in hills around Goa which look beautiful and if you are lucky, you may come across some beautiful waterfalls which are usually missed by folks visiting Goa in peak season. All such experiences make Goan Monsoons special for you. If you have missed planning Goa trip during this monsoon, don't miss it next year and have fun with your loved ones !!!

Different beaches come to our mind when we think about Goa, but Goa has many other interesting things to explore. And Old Goa has some of the beautiful architecture which takes you to a very different world. In this particular post, we are talking about two main churches situated in Old Goa - 'Se Cathedral' & 'Basilica of Bom Jesus'.The very first photograph of this Photo Journey shows entry to the Basilica of Bom Jesus which is located in old part of Goa. The Vasilica of Bom jesus is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Basilica holds the mortal remains of St. Francis Xavier. There aresome very interesting facts associated with this place and we recommend to find a guide to walk you through some of the interesting elements of The Basalica. It was third day of our Goa Trip, when we though of exploring Southern part of Goa. Old Goa is in southern region. From Panjim, one needs to drive through Goa Institute of Management to reach Se Catheral and Basilica of Bom Jesus. Both of these campuses are nearby and at walking distance. So we parked our car near Se Cathedral. Spent some time around the Cathedral and then walked to the Basilica.Se Cathedral is also known as The Se Catedral de Santa Catarina. This is the cathedral of the Latin Rite Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Goa. Supposedly it's considered as the largest church in India, which is dedicated to Catherine of Alexandria. Se Cathedral is one of the oldest and most celebrated religious buildings in Goa and is one of the largest churches in Asia as well.Above photograph shows the view of Cathedral from Basilica of Bom Jesus. Both of these are located across the road in Old Goa. Above photograph shows interiors of the Basilica of Bom Jesus. This church is located in Old Goa, which was the capital of Goa in the early days of Portuguese rule. 'Bom Jesus' name is used for the infant Jesus. The church is India’s first minor basilica which is considered to be one of the best examples of baroque architecture in India.Another view of Cathedral from Basilica. Cathedral's tower has a large bell which is popularly known as the 'Golden Bell' on account of its rich tone. There is an altar, which is dedicated to Catherine of Alexandria and there are various old paintings on both the sides. On the right hand side, there is a Chapel of the Cross of Miracles. Check out more about this cathedral at - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Se_CathedralIf I try to summarize overall experience of Old Goa, it was more about Portuguese architecture. Both Se cathedral and Basilica of Bom Jesus are in a huge area and very well maintained. Both of these are very high buildings with some of the cool painting and sculptures. To me the marvelous architecture was beautiful thing to explore in Old Goahe architectural style of the Se Cathedral is Portuguese-Manueline. The exterior is Tuscan, whereas the interior is Corinthian. The church is very long &approximately 250 feet. And the breadth is bit more than 180 feet. Architecture was something that I could appreciate the most around this place & old Goa.This was shot inside the Basilica of Bom Jesus and wikipedia has very intersting details about it's architecture, which we missed exploring during the visit. Actually we had to go to Spice plantation on same day and didn't want to miss because of timings. Check out wiki link to know more about Basilica - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basilica_of_Bom_Jesus

Main places to see & Top things to do around Dalhousie : Stunning Hill Station in Himalayan State of India

  Dalhousie is one of the most popular Hill Stations in Himachal  and there is lot to explore around Dalhousie. This is small and very well maintained town in Chamba region of Himachal Pradesh . This Photo Journey shares some of the exciting places around Chamba and how to plan a good one day tour through Khajjiar, Chamba & Chamera etc. CHAMERA HYDROLIC PROJECT Chamera Hydroelectric Project is located in Banikhet, 7 kms from Dalhousie. The water body near the lake is very scenic and is a popular boating spot. Chamera Dam is around 40 kilometers from Chamba Town. It takes approximately 1.5 hrs to reach the place is road condition is good. Overall it’s a little dry terrain as compared to Dalhousie and Khajjiar. And temperature also goes up as we go towards Chamera Dam.  As you move out from Chamba town, you follow Ravi river for some time and then take right. After 45 minutes of drive, you get a glimpse of Chemera Dam.
