Goph Dance Goa
Goph Dance Goa

Goph is an exotic confluence of colorful cultural strands. The weaving of the plait-Goph- represents the quite but conscious assimilation of the impressions left behind by several dynasties, which ruled over Goa during the past centuries. The dance is annually presented by the peasant community in Canacona Anguem and Quepem taluka in the Shigmo festival which is the most popular folk festival of Goa.
