and 15th century, it traded with Persian and Arab merchants.

Hampi & Hospet |
Hampi was once the seat of
the great Vijayanagara Empire and centre of Hindu rule
for over 200 years from its foundation in 1336. It is
one of the most mesmerizing historical sites in South
India . Set in a strangely beautiful boulder strewn
landscape, the ruins of this ancient city have a magnetism
of their own and are awe-inspiring. |

Hampi is today a thriving traveler’s destination,
and most people stay at least a couple of days to, soak
in the atmosphere and explore the area. |
