Chimbel Tourist Information
Driving six kilometres east of Panaji, but keeping away from the beaten path, one reaches the little-known village of Chimbel in the Ilhas or Tiswadi taluka. The humble habitat of cucumber growers can be reached either from Merces or Ribandar.
Chimbel is not an affluent village by any means. There aren't as many large, sprawling mansions as in the other villages of Goa. But the village is blessed with a hardworking population of around 4000, the majority of whom are from the Kunbi community.
Chimbel is a neighbour to Ribandar on the North, Merces in the West and Curca-Santanna on the East. 2The village of about 10,000 population is rather unpretentious. However, Chimbel's prime physical treasure is a beautiful lake. The lake lies snugly ensconced in verdant hills on which grow thick caju groves. It is definitely one of Goa's loveliest lakes, the like of which are seen only in Mayem and Chandor. It is an ideal spot for picnics and outings for the cityfolk, who unfortunately are not really aware of it so far.
