Chapora Fort View, Goa

Featured in this video is Chapora Fort, one of the most visited sites in Goa, the smallest state of India. Built by the ruler of Bijapur, this fort is one of the dominant and massive structures in Goa.

The fort was built out of pink laterite stones. Flanked by the Anjuna beach, this place draws the attention of tourists visiting Goa.

The Chapora fort was constructed mainly for guarding against the Hindu looters who came to establish their territory in Goa. The fort was later demolished and reconstructed by the Portuguese in 1617.
