We tried doing a search for this place on Google Maps, but we not able to locate it.
But had just a photo of this place, this was our clue, we headed out to see this place. With a lot of help from the locals finally we reached this Entrance.
Just the entrance remains, the entire fortification is broken down. The entrance is very close to the Rachol Seminary..
The Fort Entrance is on the left side of the Zuari River and can be accessed from Margao. It is approximately 8 km away from Margao. It is located on the Margao-Chandor- Curchorem Road.
History states that the Muslim Bahmani rulers built this fortress. This fort has been conquered by many rulers and finally came under Portuguese control in 1520. As the Portuguese control expanded across Goa, the importance of this fort reduced and finally it was abandoned.
