                <description><![CDATA[This market-cum-entertainment place is a must for all you shopaholics. Here the Anjuna nightlife crowd mixes in a setting with crafts and art; Rajastani dancing, hip hop music and fire-juggling; and cocktails and cappuccinos. <br><br>Once you've maxed the credit card (or rather bartered, bashed and slashed your original prices in half), why not head out to Cubana's: for 800 rupees a couple you get an open bar, a good mix of Hindi and hip hop, R'n'B tunes, a view from the hills all lit by the moonlight and a massage to boot.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Whilst Goa is beautiful, jump on a train and head south to Fort Cochin in Kerala, with its “truly Indian” feel, unspoilt by ravers, the best food in the country and MUCH cheaper too. <br><br>It has an amazing fish market daily and at night the market becomes a series of outdoor restaurants. Watch the fishermen at dawn every day and sink a couple of ice cold beers as the sun sets over this little mini ‘island'.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A thriving, packed market selling things that local people want to buy. Blankets, bindis, nighties, fruit and vegetables, cosmetics, rope, mounds of chillies and spices, baskets and ironware. Go there by bus or push bike - do you really want to add to India's pollution problems or accident statistics by riding a motor bike? Drink chai, lemon soda or juice at one of the little stalls or enjoy a samosa or dosa, all at very reasonable prices.  It's a bit grubby, a bit down at heel, but great for a morning's bargaining and jostling.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[There is  a huge market in Anjuna - totally geared towards tourists<br>but good fun nonetheless - where you can buy silver jewellery and "ethnic"<br>throws. <br><br>Think of it as a more fragrant, sun-soaked version of Camden Market]]></description>
