Boca Da Vaca Spring

The Boca de Vaca Spring, or 'the cow's mouth' in Portuguese, is a charming oasis that has been a lifeline for the city since 1830. Nestled next to the revered Mahalaxmi temple, this spring is a masterpiece of Portuguese architecture, its facade aglow with soft decorative lights in the evening, giving it an ethereal glow.As you step into the well-lit tunnel, the transparent glass floor beneath your feet reveals the flowing spring water, creating an almost magical ambiance. The sound of gentle water flow and background music envelop you, transporting you to a time when this spring was the primary source of water for the city. Even today, locals queue up here, buckets in hand, to collect water known for its medicinal properties. It's a place where history meets tranquility, where every step and glance reveals a story of Panaji's rich cultural heritage.
