Panjim (or Panaji) is the capital of the Indian state of Goa. You can find it on the banks of the Mandovi River and with its terraced hills, buildings with balconies and red-tiled roofs, churches and riverside promenade, it has quite a relaxed feel to it.
While there are many parts to Panjim, the most characteristic has to be the narrow streets of the old Latin Quarter Fontainhas. Here, you can still see and feel the Portugese influence. Today, I’d love to take you on a visual walking tour of the area and show you some of the most Pinterest-worthy doors and windows that I found.

Hey Nick & Nienke,
This is such a creative and lovely post :-) I love how you captured Goa so beautifully. I hope you had a good time in India. Have you visited any other place while you were there?
Thanks Shruti! This time it was only Goa, but a couple of years ago, we also visited Rajasthan. Such a different experience!
I’m glad it’s not just me who has obsession with all the wonderful doors in India! I always feel like each one could tell so many different stories…!
haha, no you are not alone!! :D :D
