Altinho, Goa

Altinho (Portuguese: High) is a hill neighbourhood of Panaji, the state capital of India's smallest state Goa.[1][2]

In the past it has been considered an elite residential colony, with the State's chief minister's residence and the Archbishop's palace located here. Although Altinho is a residential area, it is a home to Panaji's All India Radio station (whose precursor was the famed Emissora de Goa radio station of Portuguese times). It is also home to a sprawling set of quarters for government servants, and homes allotted to ruling party politicians.
