Travelling to Hampi is usually thought to include a lot of climbing and walking. However, Ease India Travel brings you a sweet little trip, packed with plenty of leisure and rest, and not too much walking, which will still include the historical sites in Hampi. Our guide and car with driver will ensure your trip is meaningful. The luxurious Heritage Resort where you will be staying is ideally located close to all places of interest in Hampi, and also offers several recreational options for the leisurely breaks between your sightseeing trips. Hampi tends to get hot during the afternoons, making visiting
the ruins and other monuments possibly strenuous. This trip is customised with siestas and minimal walking, making it ideal for senior citizens. Moreover, we have ensured that the food served throughout the trip is suited to all palates.

The second day will begin fairly early after breakfast, with a visit to the ruins of the Vijayanagar Empire in Hampi. With 500 ancient monuments and temples, this is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and will mesmerise you with its history and character. Hampi is also home to numerous temples like the Hazara Rama temple, the Krishna temple, the Lakshmi Narsimha temple, Sasivekalu temple, just to name a few. You will visit these as well before returning to the resort for lunch and siesta. Albeit there being nothing much to see or do there, you may avail the car to visit Hospet. Or you may
choose to relax in the evening.

Kerala Houseboat

After a restful night at the resort, you may visit the Virupaksa temple early the next morning. Built by
Pruda Deva Raya, this temple is for Lord Shiva, and remains intact, and the only active temple in
Hampi today. After this, you will head back to the resort for breakfast and a day of seeing more sites
that Hampi has to offer. The bustling Hampi bazaar, the Lotus Palace, the ancient canals and
aqueducts, are all fascinating and tell the tale of the glorious Vijayanagar Empire. You will visit them,
with a break for lunch and rest at the resort in between.

Kerala famous for Houseboat

On your last day of touring Hampi, those who wish to, may visit Kishkinda, to see the birthplace of Lord Hanuman. This requires climbing 575 steps, and it is recommended that you leave the resort at least by 4:45 am. This visit is optional, and guests may choose to stay back to breakfast and get ready for the final day of sightseeing. First on the list is a splendid Vishu (Vithala) temple. Built in the Dravidian style, the Vijaya Vithala temple is the grandest and most beautiful of all the temples in Hampi. The ruins still paint a fascinating picture of the splendour and grandeur of the temple in its
heyday. The musical pillars, the numerous shrines and halls, intricately carved pillars, the massive stone chariot, all make this temple complex a stunning sight to behold. One can spend hours here soaking in the marvel of its architecture.

River.
