The Fortress of Panikotha in Diu is a magnificent stone structure in the sea. The structure built in the shape of ship is very unique.
It also has a light house and a small chapel dedicated to Our Lady of the Sea.
This structure looks magnificent when one observers it from either Diu Jetty or Diu main land or from the Fort.
You can reach this place through a ferry boat from the fort.

RAJESH...Have you ever been out there? It is such an unusual structure but so pretty. Love the light house and the idea of the little chapel. You have gotten me so interested in your country that I am now reading a memoir written by Madhur Jaffrey entitled “Climbing the Mango Tree.” It is wonderful.
What a great view.
structure very beautiful and totally unique..
Beautiful photos, Thanks for sharing.

Intriguing photos ~ love this place and who it is dedicated to ~
Happy week to you ~ ^_^
Absolutely fascinating.
Very pretty. It looks like a queen dresses in white.
Nice location, although being afraid of water going there by a small boat does not thrill me.

What an awesome place - it looks like it would be fun to explore.
It certainly is magnificent, I imagine it would be very interesting to take a trip across and see it from the inside - it looks fairly impenetrable unless by invitation!
Love the lighthouse and the idea of having a chapel out there. So pretty!

The monument and the waters blend into each other and give a classic view!

Glad to know about this.
The fort looks very strong. Is it allowed to get inside the fort?
Really unique !! Great capture
Beautiful pictures :)
Dipanwita: One can reach the fort by taking a boat ride.
What a serene view!
This was the first structure I had ever seen in water...ages ago and am surprised to know that it is still in such a great condition. Nice article :)
Nice view; well shot
