Candolim blends scenic beauty with history. This census town in the Bardez taluka in North Goa lies north of Sinquerim and south of the Calangute Beach along the beautiful Arabian Sea. During the late sixteenth century, the Franciscans converted the villagers of Candolim to Christianity. The town then became the primary point of the anti-Portuguese revolution of 1787.
