Temples in Goa - Shri Morjaee Temple in Goa is situated at Morjim in Pernem Taluka, which is about 15-km from Mapusa.
The temple complex is situated around sylvan surroundings.
The main festival is "Kalash Utsava" which is celebrated every three, five, seven or nine years.
Duration of the festival is nearly a month, beginning from "Phalgun Shudha Panchami".
The concluding 7 days is a big cultural and religious affair when people not only from Goa, but also from Sindhudurga in Maharashtra and Karwar in Karnataka assemble in large numbers.
Almost each and every village has one temple to serve the religious and spiritual aspirations of the Hindu devotees.
Both old temples with a rich heritage of centuries and new ones attract hundreds of devotees from all over Goa and other parts of India.
The Archaeological Survey of India is actively engaged in excavation, renovation and also relocation where necessary of ancient heritage temples.
We present the most famous temples of Goa for your knowledge of the magnificent diversity of Hindu religion in Goa.
Most of the Hindu temples of interest are close to Ponda, on the inland route between Panaji and Margao. The Shiva temple of Shri Mangesh is at Priol-Ponda Taluka, about 22 Km from Panaji.
The tiny temple with its white tower, a local landmark, is on top of a small hill. Only a Km further down the road is Shri Mahalsa, a Vishnu temple. About 5 Km from Ponda are Shri Ramnath and Shri Mahalakshmi, and nearby is the Shri Shantadurga temple.
Dedicated to Shantadurga, the goddess of peace, it has a strange, almost pagoda like tower in the temple compound.
Other festivals that are celebrated at this temple site are Gudi Padva, Dussehra, Zatra, "Divjam" and "Ghode Mundim".
