Hi againtoday we are visiting second important fort of Goa.The Fort Of Chapora.This fort is next to my favourite beach of Goa ,the Vagator beach . I seen this this fort plenty of times from the beach & only twice visited the fort.It takes almost 40 minutes from Panajim to reach here & once you trek up on the fort you will see the exotic view of Arabian sea & the stunning coast line of anjuna & vagator as it is situated atop a cliff on the coast of Anjuna-Vagator.The Fort was built by the Sultan of Bijapur in 1560 on the Chapora river to guard the attacks of marathas from west & south.Later the portuguse conquered it & rebuilt the Fort in 1717.During the Portuguese rule the Fort was primarily designed as a refuge place for the people of Bardez in the event of attacks.They also built Chapel of St Anthony there.This fort is very popular Bollywood destination & lots of shoots were carried out here.So next time keep some time for visiting this Fort.Bye.
