Candola was founded by the Portuguese, in 1783, after Raja Bahadur Khem Savant III from the [[Sawantwadi State|Kingdom of Sawantwadi]] ceded its lands to [[Portuguese India|Portugal]], in order to receive military help against the [[Kolhapur State|Kingdom of Kolhapur]].<br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
The [[Mandovi River]] flows to through village's East and North, separating it from the village of [[Amona, Goa|Amona]]. Another waterbody - the [[Cumbarjua]] Canal, which is a [[distributary]] of the Mandovi, flows on its North-Western border, separating it from the island of [[St Estevam]]. There is a bridge over River, connecting it to the inner parts of Goa, and another over the canal, connecting it to the island.<ref name=":0" /><br />
