 - Rivona Buddhist Caves - Nestled quietly in the verdant hinterland of South Goa, the Rivona Caves, also known as the Pandava Caves, are ancient rock-cut sanctuaries carved into laterite, dating back to the 6th or 7th century CE. Experts believe they were created by Buddhist monks as meditation retreats and centers for teaching.
 - Usgalimal Rock Carvings - Situated on the sandy banks of the Kushavati River at Rivona, the Usgalimal petroglyphs are among Goa’s most extraordinary prehistoric sites. Featuring over a hundred figures etched into laterite bedrock, they include animals (likely bovids), human forms, spirals, concentric circles, labyrinth-like designs, and other geometric motifs. The carvings were rediscovered in the 1990s and are now safeguarded by the Archaeological Survey of India.
