Описание: #Hampi #Anegundi #KarnatakaVlog
Also known as Pampa Kshetra, Kishkindha Kshetra or Bhaskara Kshetra, Hampi was the centre of Hindu Vijayanagara Empire in the 14th century. Hampi became world’s second-largest medieval-era city after Beijing by 1500 CE. It was the richest city then and hence attracted traders from countries like Portugal and Persia. The Vijayanagara Empire was defeated and Hampi was destroyed by Muslim Sultanates in 1565. Spread over 4,100 hectares (16 sq.mi.), this UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to remains of forts, riverside features, temples, shrines, pillared halls, mandapas/ mantapas, royal and sacred complexes, memorial structures, water structures, etc. Located on the banks of Tungabhadra River, Hampi is famous for Stone Chariot, King's Balance, Vijaya Vittala Mandir, Virupaksha Temple, Ugra Narasimha, Hippie Island, etc.

Anegundi holds a significant place Indian mythology due to its association with the epic of Ramayana. It is believed to be the kingdom of Kishkindha, ruled by the monkey Prince Sugriva. The village has a link with Ramayana due to Anjanadri Hill (the birthplace of monkey-God Hanuman) and Rishimukh Hill (where Sugriva lived with Hanuman, during his exile). Anegundi is also home to one of the oldest plateaus in the world – about 3,000 million years old.
