Hampi was the capital of the Vijayanagara empire, and its ruins spread across a dramatic landscape of boulders along the Tungabhadra. The Virupaksha Temple is still active, while the Vittala Temple, its stone chariot and the Royal Enclosure reveal the city’s scale. Sunrise and sunset from Hemakuta or Matanga hill are unforgettable.
