The major beaches in Goa are Anjuna, Claangute, Colva and Benaulim, Dona Paula, Vagator and Chapora, Cavelosim, and many more. Some of the other tourist attractions in Goa include Dudhsagar waterfall and Arvalem waterfall, the rock-cut caves of Khandepar and Arvalem, the Pilar monastery, Saligao seminary, and Rachol seminary. Apart from beaches and other attractions, Goa is also famous for its churches and temples. Some of the leading churches in Goa include, Our Lady of Immaculate Conception, the Se Cathedral, Basilica of Bom Jesus, Church of St. Francis of Assisi, Church of St Cajetan, Church of St. Augustine, and others. Fort Aguada is worth a visit to savor the nostalgia of the Portuguese regime, especially in its lighthouse and the Aguada jail. The Terekhol Fort near the Arambol beach has been now converted into a hotel. The Museum of Christian Art at the Rachol Seminary and church and the Braganza House near Margao are also worth a visit.
