Exploring a destination like Hampi

If you're looking for a trip that feels like time-travel, you must plan a trip to Hampi. Most travellers visit in the months of October to February to enjoy the outdoor museum in the cool winter sun. You can plan your perfect vacation around exploring the massive Virupaksha Temple, the riverside ruins, and the boulders of Anegundi.

A visit to Hampi is split into two halves: the temple side (Hampi Bazaar) rich in history and the 'Other Side' (Sanapur/Anegundi) known for its laid-back hippie vibe and lake. Whether it is the spiritual energy of the morning puja or the high-adrenaline rock climbing on granite boulders, Hampi promises an experience that is both ancient and free-spirited!

Must-Visit Highlights in Hampi

A granite kingdom where every boulder has a story.

  • Sunset at Matanga Hill: Watch the boulders glow orange as the sun sets over the ruins.

Pro tip: Rent a moped or bicycle for the day—it's the most flexible and fun way to see the spread-out ruins.
