The Chapora Fort gives a splendid view of the nearby Anjuna and Vagator beaches. The fort has been well preserved except a few interesting ruins.

Chapora Fort became a hit with domestic tourist after a popular Hindi movie - "Dil Chahta Hai" pictured a song in this Fort.

Visitors take photographs after the actors in the movie who were picturized swallowing a fish in a scene!

It was a domain of the Muslim rulers before the Portuguese wrested it. In 1683, the Marathas hijacked three priests from the Chapora Fort and converted them into Hindus.
