I spent half an hour trying to find pictures of the house in Goa before I saw your pictures here on Goanet. While there are some similarities in both the house in Goa and the Sultans Palace in Zanzibar, the Goan house does not look anything like the palace. Here, is a picture of the original palace in Zanzibar. http://www.flickr.com/photos/kevharb/4324658284/sizes/l/ Mervyn1430Lobo
