Margao Market & Goa's Chitra Museum

Departs: 8:45 am [ Approximately 6 Hours ]

It takes one-hour to reach Margao Market from the pier. Once you arrived in this lively market, you will be introduced with a specialized chef who will take you to the spice market, established around it. Margao is the tiny ancient town in Goa that lies over the banks of the River Sal. The massive Portuguese-style mansions are the praise worthy places to visit in this small destination. Being the fastest growing city, Margao is a delight to explore full of commercial centres.

A convoluted market, Margao’s bazaar is a must - see destination in this town, offering numerous commodities ranging from lip-smacking snacks, lime paste to infuriate to zests and toys. After having lots of shopping experiences, you must travel to its agricultural trading point that has been standing over centuries without any repair.

The Goa Chitra Museum is an essential part of Margao tourism. Voted as the "top contemporary museum" by the Archaeological Survey, this museum is a pleasure to explore. It was the excellent creativity of Victor Hugo Gomes, a genius artist. It is widely renowned as first and only anthropologic museum in this state, housing more than 4,000 exclusive artifacts collections such as antique windows, wood, stoneware, agricultural tools, musical instruments, old carts, stone, doors, pillars and railings on its display.

This museum presents Goa’s anachronistic agrarian knowledge and royal lifestyle to the visitors. While visiting to Margao, you won’t want to miss the organic farm that is internationally famed for its numerous farming products such as sugarcane, herbs, vegetables, spices and rice.
