The glorious and still active Virupaksha temple in Hampi shines on in the background. As you relax on the Hemakuta hill slopes enjoying this view, the devotional chants reverberating from the temple will transport you to a magical, peaceful place. Truly, you need to experience that moment.
No trip to Hampi is complete unless you hop onto one of these coracles (circular boats made of bamboo, cane, plastic and tar for binding) and take a ride on the mighty tungabadhra river. The ferryman will show you partially submerged temples and balancing rocks while you immerse yourself in the experience.
