Abstract

Panaji is the capital city of the state of Goa, and the city has been declared as a Heritage City under the JNNURM for urban renewal scheme. The city is spotted as one of the most attractive tourist destinations in India. Panaji is known for its Indo-Portuguese cultural heritage having a number of heritage structures, buildings, monuments and sites of significant importance. The Outline Development Plan 2011 has identified as many as 40 buildings, houses, sites and monuments in the City. It has many heritage structures, monuments and areas, which needs to be addressed for conservation. These heritage structures and areas have come under tremendous threat of new developments due to improper approach by the agencies involved in conserving including the people at large. The paper focuses on Fontainhas heritage areas by addressing the issues that are faced by the heritage area and proposes planning measures for regulating the heritage conservation areas for harmonious development in the City of Panaji
