Three Kings Chapel
Perched atop a hill in the quaint village of Cansaulim, South Goa, the Three Kings Chapel is a place where legend and beauty intertwine in a dance of mystery and serenity. This tiny, hilltop chapel, named after the three wise men who visited Jesus at his birth, is shrouded in an intriguing tale of power, betrayal, and tragic fate. The story goes that three Portuguese kings, consumed by greed and ambition, met a deadly end here, and their spirits are said to still roam the grounds.As you ascend the hill, the air thickens with an almost palpable sense of history and intrigue. The chapel itself is a modest yet striking structure, but it's the views that truly steal the show. From this vantage point, you can behold a panoramic tapestry of South Goa – lush green fields, swaying coconut trees, and the endless stretch of the Arabian Sea glinting in the sunlight. Whether you're here to unravel the mysteries of the past or simply to bask in the tranquility of the present, the Three Kings Chapel offers an experience that is as haunting as it is breathtaking. So, come for the ghosts, stay for the sunset – and let the whispers of the past envelop you in this enchanting corner of Goa.

Off the beaten track, you will need a taxi but they are very cheap. Lots of steps but the view of sunset is exceptional and well worth a visit.
