Bringing Hampi To Your Home: ‘The Golden City Of Hampi’ Captures The Heritage Site Perfectly

Meghna Mathew

The ancient city of Hampi in Karnataka, which is home to the ruins of the Vijayanagara Empire has not only remained a popular tourist spot but is also preferred as a getaway location. Both these prospects, however, are slightly far fetched at the moment – thank you, Coronavirus!

Adharsh Rajput delivers the essence and beauty of Hampi through a short video which is, in fact, a three-day documentation of the heritage site. The concise video gives you a taste of Hampi as it features multiple locations such as the Virupaksha Temple, Elephant’s Stables, Hemakuta hills, Tungabhadra river, Pampa Sarovar, and much more.

Shot entirely on a phone, the crisply edited video leaves no aspect of Hampi behind and truly gives you a feeling of being present there. If not that, it is sure to set off your travel mood!
