The ruins of Hampi….
where sunflowers grow in abundance
where balance between the brown and the green is amazing
where we have ganesha’s of all sizes… the mustard ganesha
and the peanut ganesha
where the rocks teach you the balancing act like no one else can
where there are gopurams tall…. virupakasha temple… its 9 floors and 52m in height only 2 m short of meenakshi temple
and there are some natural frames
even the sapera has a story to tell
and music is always in the air
precious stones and gold was sold in an open market
where the river tungbhadra completes the balance
and there are more colors than one can think
the craftmanship is to die for
and the queen’s chamber remains as cool as a AC room just by regulating ventilation
where even the animals were kept in places as majestic as these
where there is the famous stone chariot
and the master piece in itself the Vithala Temple where each pillar makes the sound of a different musical instrument….
and last but not the least where sunset brings with itself a medley of colors (unfortunately the day we went was cloudy so the colors were not as prominent as they usually are but they still left us speechless)
We did a hampi trip back in 2006 and u can read the trip account here.… and for more information on Hampi click here
