Ugra Narasimha or Laxmi Narasimha statue in Hampi 4

Hampi: Story of A Ruined Citadel – Part 1

The visual delight of Hampi is dominated by craggy hills, Tungabhadra river, plain surfaces or vale and widespread of ruins. The entire region consists of 1600 surviving remains which include temples, mandapas, forts, royal complexes, lofty towers, water structures, pillared halls, gateways, defense architectures, stables, and many more. My imagination took a swift turn from the alley of Roman Amphitheater to the era of Ramayana.
