'''Wadi-Talaulim''' is a village in [[Ponda taluka]] of [[Goa]], [[India]]. As of 2018, it has a population of 3,800.<ref name="LandIsidoreToI" />

== Etymology ==
Wadi Talaulim derives its name from [[Konkani language|Konkani]], in which ''Talaulim'' means ‘land between three mountains and a river’ while ''Wadi'' is a place where a few farmers and other villagers reside.<ref name="LandIsidoreToI" />

==Location==
A 4-kilometre drive from [[Ponda, Goa|Ponda]] brings you into Wadi-Talaulim. It is located 25 kilometres east of the state capital [[Panaji]]. The village is bordered by [[Borim]], Durbhat and Quela on one side and the [[Zuari River|Zuari river]] on the other.<ref name="LandIsidoreToI" />

==History==
Wadi and Talaulim were two separate villages, as they belonged to separate communidades. A few years after the [[liberation of Goa]] in 1961, they began being governed by the same [[Panchayati raj (India)|panchayat]].

Both, Wadi and Talaulim have many temples, dedicated to [[Hindu]] deities like Narayan Dev, [[Hanuman]], [[Ganpati]], [[Krishna]], Shree Bhutnath, Mahalaxmi and Sateri Ladbai.

Most residents of Wadi-Talaulim are originally from [[Salcete]]’s villages of [[Loutolim]], [[Colva]], etc. Nearly 80% of Talaulim's residents can trace their roots to Colva alone. During the initial years after the [[Portuguese conquest of Goa]], many of the residents of the villages of Salcete (which was a part of the [[Velhas Conquistas]]) shifted to Talaulim, to escape religious persecution and the mass [[Christianization of Goa]]. Wadi-Talaulim also has residents from [[Canacona]], who shifted here many years after the Velhas Conquistas for a variety of other reasons.

Bhatwada, Talsal, Vadem, Camara Bhat, Holi Bhat, Bhedxem, Ladbhai Vaddo, Sokol Vaddo, Voilo Vaddo, Pimpla Bhat, Kasswada, Wade Vaddo, Modle Vaddo, Pursha Bhat etc are the various ''wadde'' (wards) of the village.<ref name="LandIsidoreToI">{{Cite web
