Country roads take me home... to a Goan village

RURAL CHARM

Goa's villages are generally connected by narrow roads, and are a great way to experience the rural side of Goa.

PICTURE PERFECT

The charm of village roads in Goa is largely due to the scenic beauty around them. Palm trees, paddy fields and pretty houses border these roads, creating a picture-perfect postcard scene.

GOAN LIFE

Travelling along village roads gives you a glimpse into the local way of life in Goa, from people working in fields, to children playing, to women carrying baskets of groceries on their heads.

THE REAL GOA

Village roads are often dotted with little shops, cafes and temples, which can be great places to stop and explore. And, you're sure to get a taste of the typical, warm Goan hospitality from the locals.

TROPICAL PARADISE

Palm trees, swaying in the breeze, and lush green paddy fields stretching into the horizon create a feeling of being in a tropical paradise (which, indeed, Goa is!).

COLOUR PALETTE

Houses painted in vibrant colours, and topped with terracotta roof tiles, line the roads, adding a cheerful contrast to the colour palette of the lush, green landscape.

NATURE'S TRANQUILITY

The village roads of Goa meander along flowing rivers and serene lakes, providing a sense of peace and tranquility.
