Dive Into Ancient Caves

Take a break from the beaches of North Goa to visit the Arvalem Caves. Widely believed to have been inhabited by the Pandavas during their exile, the ancient caves are said to date back to the 5th and 6th century. One of the caves houses a linga, and the Arvalem Waterfalls and a Rudraksha Temple are closeby. In South Goa, the rock cut caves of Khandepar, in Ponda,  are worth peeking into. The 9th century caves were first occupied by a community of Buddhist monks but the Kadamba dynasty turned them into temples in the following centuries.

Navya considers herself to be the Cassandra of the 21st century – no one ever listens to the wisdom that she so willingly imparts. This is the only Greek tragedy element in her otherwise happy life. She’s got her Husband Charming, has perfected the art of sarcasm, is always fed copious amounts of good food, and is well on her way to self-actualization.
