The city was divided into different suburbs. Each suburb had a temple, bazaar and water tank at its centre. Hampi had Virupaksha Temple, Krishnapura had Balakrishna Temple, Vitthalapura had Vijaya Vitthala Temple, Kamalapura had Pattabhirama Temple etc.
The city had a sophisticated water supply system which partly survives today. There were many canals around the Metropolitan area. At Anegundi, you can see the ruins of an aqueduct built during the reign of Emperor Bukka Raya. There is also a massive resevoir south of Kamalapura suburb. This all supplied drinking water, water for farming, gardening and recreation too. In the Imperial Palace Complex, there is a huge Olympic Sized Swimming Pool. During Holi (Vasanthotsav), the royal family would sit in little boats and squirt colours and water at each other.
That's why Karnataka is called one state many worlds! U'll get to see hampi to city to beaches to evergreen hilltops to massive waterfalls to dry desert. Massive buildings to many ancient temples to heritage sites. Enjoyed your vlogs. Do visit again 🙏
@@dunneytravelsmother chod beach your British media all time Insult, criticise weak and poor countries. No resturents here.. Indian people is not your enemy okk. But your media all time Insult India by slum dog millioner, curry
@@dunneytravelsyour girlfriend wear this type dress in temple mother chod beach. All time Insult, criticise only weak and poor people. I hope your small country will soon tottaly destroy by black people and Islam
@@dunneytravelsRussian people hate British far more than Indians. Why not target russia Beacause russia is strong. Russia also a very big country with low population
The city had 7 fortification walls. The Inner most fortification contained the Imperial Palace which was 0.4km2 (making it the second largest palace in the world at the time after Forbidden City in Beijing).
The City Core of Vijayanagara was more than 40km2 in size (in comparison Rome was 13km2). The Metropolitan region was 100km2 and had more than 1 million people. Hosapete is the southern most suburb of the Metropolitan city, built by Emperor Krishna Devaraya
Mother f.. Cker beach. Your tinny small country UK is full of drunked women. You wear this type dress in temple. Don't Insult and criticise only poor, third world country very soon your small country will be destroy by black people, Islam.
Please visit Kailasa Temple at Ellora Caves in Maharashtra India. It's considered greatest architecture in history of mankind, because the way it was built seems unbelievable for even today’s time. The temple was built at least 1300 years ago. No stone or nothing was added they carved a mammoth Granite rock/mountain with intricate details. The Kailasa Temple is notable for its vertical excavation-carvers started at the top of the original rock and excavated downward. At least 400000 tonnes of stones have been removed in the process. About 7000 workers and their future generations worked for 135 years. One small mistake and you have to rebuild the whole temple because it's carved into the rock without adding anything, that too up to down. other than Kailasa Temple there are 99 other cave temples there (100 total) of which 34 are open for public viewing. whole temple complex known at Ellora Caves.
Hampi is just beyond beautiful. Some of the places, like the Queens baths, lotus palace, elephant stables. It takes your breath away. The step well, canal systems. Carved plates/ thalis and katories , amazing. The monolith huge doors, which could only be opened by elephants. Secret underground chamber, so the king could have discussions and no one else would hear. The administration area is spectacular. You see carvings of elephants, horses and camels. That was a sign that trade used to take place with Persia and Arabia. There are two pillars near this area, which were used as lathes, to shape the pillars into perfect rounds. The technology behind all of this is so wonderful to see. The main temples, the chariot, and the musical pillars. if it was in a western country it would have been wonder of the world.
Not just this place, the whole of India was beautiful - India was richer than England. The British came, attacked us and looted us. British were worse than Barbarians. Brits murdered 35 million of Indians, contrived 12 devastating famines, looted $ 45 trillion, reduced India to an opium economy, broke us in two, left us with a life expectancy of 32 years. But we survived. India is beautiful because Indians are beautiful.
Please do visit North East of India. It's very beautiful out here and has a very distinct culture, people and food from rest of India with surreal natural beauty. Sadly not many foreigners visit this part of the country or are aware of this region which will open up an entirely new perspective on how diverse our mother India is ❤
You should skip Delhi and visit Ajanta Ellora Caves, Ladakh, Meghalaya, and the Andaman Islands. These are some of the most amazing places to visit in India, way better than Delhi.
Some people go to Hampi expecting to see very beautiful temples, grand palaces, forts, exquisite carvings, colorful bazars, etc. and when they don't see those, they feel disappointed. What they don't realize is Hampi is a RUINED CITY. Beauty of Hampi is in its history, what it stood for and how it came to RUIN. Imagine a great bustling city like London falling suddenly, everything plundered by the enemy and life coming to to standstill for all its people! Hampi was indeed such a city, capital of a great empire in South India (as big as UK and Germany put together). And one day it suddenly collapsed.... What an impact it must have had!! Of course there are still some structures standing like Virupaksha temple, Ugranarasimha, Market complex, Mahanavami Dibba, Stone Chariot, Queens baths, Elephant stables, etc. But they may not be immediately beautiful to the SENSES. You need to study the history and let Hampi grow on you.
I am surprised about the travelers feeling lost. Many people in Bharat speak the English language, albeit with local accents difficult to decipher, and the shop signs generally are in English and vernacular. All these good folks have to do is to ask!
The City had extremely wide roads for its time. The Virupaksha Bazaar and Achyutaraya Road were 30m wide, the Vitthala Road was 40m wide, the Krishna Bazaar Road was 50m road, and the road between Kamalapura and Hosapete was also 50m wide.
Whenever i see a vlogs on hmapi it feels sad that too many peoples missed to see the actual places out there in Hampi 😢. Next time if u visit please contact a local guide and stay there for atleast 4-5 days and hampi is not expensive too😊
@@dunneytravels Yes please, just give maximum of 10 pound(if bargained poorly) and you can actually get a good tour of the whole place with relevance, you didn't even explore 1 percentage of the actual places, you need to be the tourists when there is the need. There are lots of places to visit and understand. Anyway just visit chennakesava temple in Karnataka, you will understand why India was the golden peacock 1500 years ago until there were the looters and colonizers.
No, because there are 40+ UNESCO world heritage sites but Hampi reminds us about the past when it was the richest Kingdom on Earth. Quite evident with the ruins which is apparent to the naked eyes.
This place Hampi was once a glittering city of the Vijaynagar. Very peaceful and prosperous. Then it was brought to ruins by a breed of people. I'll let you all guess that.
They say that's what happened in the past but they have never forgotten the atrocities caused by Germany under the regime of Hitler. However Britain gave shelter to the indians from East Africa when they were kicked out by Idi Amin. Their human rights activists have done much harm to the economy of the country by nurturing the asylum seekers who have abused the system. It's indian culture to treat the tourists with respect when they come to visit india.
5 Muslim Kingdom United, invaded to destroy and burnt Hampi for 6 months. In 1565, at the Battle of Talikota, a coalition of Muslim sultanates entered into a war with the Vijayanagara Empire. They captured and behe@ded the king Aliya Rama Raya, followed by a massive destruction of the infrastructure fabric of Hampi and the metropolitan Vijayanagara.
*I don't understand why people are irritating our guests by asking for a selfie, anyway it is better to visit ancient temples of india, rather than the modern site also read the history of temples from Wikipedia, u can search kailasha temple* many beautiful ancient temples also exist in South India, northern ancient temples were demolished by the Mughal Invaders
When you are flocked by people, you can always politely decline saying you were heading some where. I can understand that it becomes overbearing, so i think it's not rude to not oblige everytime. Saying that much, i really enjoyed your vlog and i look for more of your content from now on. Hampi, though its very beautiful, can become quite challenging to navigate without a guide. I stay in the adjacent state and i visited hampi exactly a year ago. We had to find an auto rickshaw who helped us show around.
Typical Brit blog complaining about 6p and 20p or a rickshaw ride the charges 2 quid extra 😅 I was I’m hampi earlier this year and the Historical very interesting. Ask the Indians for colonial taxes for selfies their country got looted for billions so May aswell take some extra from them too 😂
I am sorry mate you wasted such a wonderful trip and missed everything that Hampi has to offer. This was the most advanced civilization lived centuries ago. The carving of temples is complex there is no explanation on how they did hundreds of years ago. you missed musical stone that can play seven notes. Try tuning a stone to produce musical note in 2023 with all the computers, chatpGPT AI, going to the moon. If you have utilized your time properly you would have realized how backward we had become. No one cares of Indian food there is Indian restaurant in every corner of the world and you get high cholesterol Poori Saagu anywhere.
Thanks for the info and the recommendations! Much appreciated. Unfortunately we got very, very sick from that Indian street food Thali you saw in the video. We had 3 days in Hampi, 2 of them were spent hanging over the toilet being unable to move due to sickness 😩😩 we will be back to Hampi in the future to explore more though 💪🏽
@@dunneytravels Please don't Indian food on streets, having lived abroad my body has lost resistance and I get sick all the time. Eat well cooked vegetables and meat with less spicy and aways drink bottled water. Please hire proper guide
During Vijaynagar dynasty Hampi Gold & Diamond were used to sold on roadside like vegetables
Wow! 🙌🏼
Hampi under the Vijaynagar Empire was once bigger than Rome
This information is lost on these people. Was Hanumanji born in Hampi?
@@jayz2352it's Anjanadri (kishkinda )
Visible from hampi around 5km ago
But it's not older than rome
@@santosh627hi but one anjani town also present in maharashtra
And son many people said that hanuman born at that place??

Heritage of Karnataka Vijayanagara Kingdom ❤💛❤💛
Wow this place looks incredible!
🙌🏼🇮🇳
In case you are wondering about Hampi, it was once upon a time, a few centuries ago, the biggest and the richest city in the world.
You can most definitely see that! It’s an incredible place with astonishing history. I’m glad we got the chance to experience it 🙌🏼

India is beautiful because Indians are beautiful.
the Mughals invaded first, and then British. both equally evil in what they did.

Thanks for your honest opinion. Have a great time at Hampi.
Well there is river beside & you go there to see musical notes pillars, chariot and orher ruins then you go to Badami Caves and that is way to go Goa
You should skip Delhi and visit Ajanta Ellora Caves, Ladakh, Meghalaya, and the Andaman Islands. These are some of the most amazing places to visit in India, way better than Delhi.
Hampi looks very ancient snd historical place
It is lovely there :)

This is just a fraction of beauty of Indian temples
