HOUSES OF GOA MUSIUM

 

HOUSES OF GOA MUSEUM (TORDA)

 

We in Goa have a strange but novel
history and that is, we are part of the first
sustained encounter between the East
and the West. Though we have a long
and rich history from times immemorial
and much before the arrival of the
Portuguese, this encounter produced a
culture and architecture which is unique.
This museum showcases the houses
which were the prime expression of the
Goan identity.
The Museum is built as a traffic island in
Torda, Salvador-do-Mundo Bardez Goa.
Strangely enough it is in the shape of a
triangle and resembles a ship. Viewed
from the outside it is a mystery, but as
you begin your visit, it slowly unfolds its
charms.

 This is not just enough, to know more briefly you need to visit this place personally it is such a nice place. From Outside it is looking a strange structure but inside this almost it contains all the historical  tradition and culture of Goa.
