Lower Aguada Fort extension, Television tower and medieval fortification in Bardez, India

The Lower Aguada Fort extension includes a fortification tower and a television broadcasting facility situated at the edge of the Arabian Sea.

Portuguese builders completed this section of Fort Aguada in 1612 as part of their defensive network against Dutch naval advances in the region.

The structure combines its original military architecture with modern broadcasting equipment, representing different periods of technological advancement in Indian history.

Visitors can reach the fort extension by taking a local bus or taxi from Panaji to Sinquerim Beach, located 16 kilometers north of the city.

The television tower stands on foundations that once contained one of Asia's largest freshwater storage facilities, holding over 2.3 million gallons.
