Margao Cultural Walk
Unveiling Margao
Goa
“Margao, the cultural capital of Goa, has a rich history dating back to ancient times. It was a prominent settlement during the Kadamba dynasty and later became a key administrative centre under Portuguese rule in the 16th century. The name “Margao” is believed to have originated from “Matha-gram,” referring to the region’s Brahmin mathas (monasteries). The town flourished as a trading hub, with its marketplace and colonial-era mansions reflecting its Portuguese heritage. Today, Margao retains its historical charm, blending old-world architecture with modern development while serving as an important commercial and cultural centre in South Goa.”
