There are ATMs in the vicinity of the market, so you don’t need to worry much. There are buses that run into Mapusa from just about everywhere in Goa, for as cheap as INR 10-20 a ticket. Since the place can get really crowded, we recommend you to wear your mask at all times and carry enough sanitiser. market that is open from around 9 am until 6.30 – 7.00 pm, Monday through Saturday. Like most Goan markets, it tends to shut down for the traditional susegad or siesta time in the afternoons. One can find just about anything at Mapusa Market, with items ranging from antiques and Goan pottery to handicrafts, textiles, clothing, spices, fruits, vegetables, meats, jewellery. Bargaining is advised and is a good place to test your haggling skills. On every Friday, local traders, farmers, artisans, etc. showcase their products or works. And that’s the day you will also get the opportunity to buy without paying middleman prices. The place is buzzing and just what one needs after the shopping. One can sit with a chilled beer and take a break and just watch the hustle and bustle of the market. The food is pretty good and is totally value for money. Their crispy fried sardines are a house speciality.

If you are in North goa then this temple should be on your list. This is a very serene and beautiful place. I recently unexpectedly visited this temple in 2023 but the moment me and my wife stepped in got connected to God. The architecture of the temple is just beautiful. It gives you beautiful vibes. Do visit this temple during evening time.
