About:\u00a0<\/strong>Situated northeast to Margao in Salcette, South Goa, Rachol Fort is famous for the battles fought between Vijayanagar and Bijapur empires.

Mostly in ruins, the old gate of arms and some sections of the wall and moat are all the tourists can see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This ancient and historically significant fort is now little more than a ruin being reclaimed by nature. Only an archway over the road leading to the Rachol seminary and a dried up moat surrounding the hill on which the seminary sits remain of its wonder and glory. The fort is known more for the scenic beauty that surrounds it than for its architectural merit, but it has a fascinating, if bloody, history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3181,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wds_primary_category":0},"categories":[156,152,160],"tags":[205,180,183,182,181,178,198,179,184,195,203,194,204,185,193],"yoast_head":"\nRachol Fort in South Goa -
