Reis Magos fort: A vantage view.

Our Goa is full of so many beautiful places, specially the historical forts and churches. I'm fond of visiting places from childhood. Travelling to different places and coming up with wonderful experience feels good within me. Being in Goa you don't visit  forts quite strange for me, and I guess no one will  ever miss the chance of visiting  reis magos fort carrying a historical background. The fort is situated in narrowest  elongate  of Mandovi River just facing the capital city Panjim  Although you can get a far view of fort from kala academy , but visiting it personally getting a closer view is just eye catching , words will fall short to describe such an fort. Mainly it displays the Portuguese history and the view of the sea and the river is spectacular! you just can't afford to miss the chronological depiction & wooden model placed in center hall. I guess the church run down but almost 400 yrs old. Best fort for tourist attraction . It is surrounded by sand, green trees and off course the Mandovi River which adds magnificence to it making this garrison a faultless consigns. The Reis mangos fort is very much intense place. The fort looks stony because its surrounded with the rugged laterite stones.  One of the most beautiful views of this fort is from the east when base raises the light that falls on the fort makes it amazing. We can just experience this fascinating view on every morning with the excellent water of the river. I can just conclude it as my best visit there and the views are breathtaking  just walking around the fort in the midst of rains was a wonderful experience!
