Agaçaim, sometimes spelt Agassaim, is a village on the northern banks of the Zuari River in Ilhas, Goa, surrounded by Panjim to the north, Margão to the south, Vasco da Gama to the west and Ponda to the east, thus making it a main connection between North Goa and South Goa via the Zuari Bridge. Agaçaim is famous for its Goan chouriço.
History
