Hampi on the Tungabhadra was the capital of the Vijayanagara empire, founded in 1336, one of the richest kingdoms of the south until the 16th century.
Its boulder country holds more than 1,600 surviving monuments, from the still-worshipped Virupaksha temple to the stone chariot and musical pillars of the Vittala temple; it has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986.
