Latin Quarter Walk at Panjim
📍 Panaji, North Goa
About This Experience
Fontainhas is the oldest neighbourhood in Panjim, and the only Latin Quarter in Asia. This 1.5km walk traces the first Portuguese settlement in the city through lanes of ochre and indigo houses with terracotta roofs and balconies overflowing with plants. You stop at the old Panjim Post Office, the historic Mint House, a neighbourhood chapel most visitors walk past, and a family-run bakery that has been feeding the quarter since the 1920s. It ends with a visit inside a local Indo-Portuguese home. The kind of morning that makes you understand what Goa actually is.
