The Terekhol Fort in Tiracol, Goa

This ancient and imposing fort on the river Terekhol is perhaps the best preserved and most visited fort in Goa. The fort stands tall and proud crowning the hilltop at the confluence of the Terekhol River with the Arabian Sea. Topped by turrets, it is an awe-inspiring sight. The fort also commands spectacular views over the confluence of the river and sea waters as well as a bird’s eye view of the Querem and Kalacha beach.

Today the fort has been converted into a luxurious boutique hotel. Visitors to the fort can also treat themselves to a gorgeous luncheon at the hotel restaurant.
