Sights
It's worth a walk around the lovely, small Largo de Igreja district, home to lots of atmospher-
ically crumbling and gorgeously restored old Portuguese homes, and the quaint and richly
decorated 17th-century Church of the Holy Spirit , particularly impressive when a Sunday
morning service is taking place. The church also hosts services at 4pm on weekdays but is
open erratically at other times.
The city's business district orbits the rectangular Municipal Gardens , a mini-oasis. At the
southern end the Municipal Building is home to the dusty and awesome Municipal Library
MAP GOOGLE MAP ( 8am-8pm Mon-Fri, 9am-noon & 4-7pm Sat & Sun) , which has some great books
on Goa and a retro reading room where you can read the paper along with lots of gents in
button-downs.
