Hampi-Hospet
3 Days / 2 Nights »
Hampi
|
|
|
Hampi which lies 13 kms east of Hospet, was once the seat of the great Vijaynagara empire and the centre of Hindu rule for 200 years from its foundation in 1336. Enormously wealthy, greater than Rome, they held a monopoly of trade in spices and cotton. This site was chosen for strategic reasons, but the craftsmen excelled in adopting an ingenious style to blend in architectural masterpieces with the barren and rocky landscapes. Most of the sites are 16th century and built during the 20-year reign of Krishna deva Raya.
