About Chapora Fort in Goa

The commanding view of vast Arabian Sea from the ruins of Chapora Fort in Goa captivates visitors. It’s the spot where the gang of Dil Chahta Hai spends a few moments contemplating about their lives.

Located in the taluka of Bardez, the current structure of Chapora Fort in North Goa was built by the Portuguese on the same site of an older fort. Built in the year 1717, the fort is held by different rulers and kingdoms over the years. In the late 17th century, Chapora Fort was a stronghold of the Marathas while it served as a military outpost for the Portuguese a few decades later. It eventually fell to the Marathas in 1739 but lost its military significance over time.

Today, Chapora Fort in Goa overlooks a quiet stretch of Chapora Beach where families, backpackers, and honeymooners can be seen enjoying. Being perched on a hill, Chapora Fort has a beautiful location that attracts scores of visitors every day. This ancient laterite fort overlooks the mouth of the Chapora River. This enduring historical monument offers spectacular views of the Arabian coastline and sunset views.

The wall fortification follows the natural slope of the hill and its bastions are large enough to put cannons. The main entrance of Chapora Fort is small and narrow so that the enemy wouldn’t be able to enter easily.

The fort came into the limelight as it was one of the shooting locations in Goa for the 2001 Bollywood movie Dil Chahta Hai. The number of visitors to Chapora Fort certainly increased after the film. It is often called as ‘Dil Chahta Hai Fort’, by avid movie fans.

    Rajendra's 4 days trip to Goa

    I have been told everything is covered in package on 4th day also but after going there agent is saying only airport drop is covered and everything else is chargeable. I tried speaking to agent (Firdaus) to clarify this by calling multiple times entire day but received no response. Finally she told
    me over the phone on 4th day that i need to pay extra charges for 4th day which came as surprise for me.

    "I would like to express my gratitude to Shri Avinash Kumar from Goa Original, in association with Travel Triangle, for the exceptional service provided during our entire tour of Goa. From planning to execution, every detail was meticulously taken care of, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.
    His professionalism, promptness, and friendly demeanor truly made our trip memorable. However, the car driver's service was not up to the mark and could use some improvement. Overall, a great experience, and I highly recommend their services for a Goa vacation!"

    Anand's 4 days trip to Goa

    Avinash coordinated everything well. I primarily handled all the city transfers, sightseeing, and hotel bookings. Everything went smoothly, although I didn’t stretch my itinerary too much since I was traveling with my 2-year-old baby. I always made sure to end our day trips a bit earlier. I highly
    recommend Avinash for my future bookings and to my friends and family.
