Hampi is our last stop before we head back tomorrow to Bengaluru after five and a half months to end what we started on 2nd October 2021 – the All India Road Trip. We are homesick, nostalgic and totally overwhelmed as we end this mega road trip across India. And what a place to spend the last few days – Hampi. A city that was one of the richest and largest in the world in its heydays some 400-500 years ago. It\u2019s dotted with numerous ruined temple complexes from the Vijayanagara Empire. On the south bank of the River Tungabhadra is the 7th-century Hindu Virupaksha Temple, near the revived Hampi Bazaar. A wonderful place to be in to take a wonderful journey into the glorious past of India.
And we got to meet some wonderful people here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
