Some of the best days of Anegundi and Hampi! ?
Anegundi is believed to be Kishkinda, the vanar (monkey) kingdom of Ramayana. Anegundi was the capital of the Vijayanagar kingdom before it was shifted to Hampi. A place where it is difficult to tell where the legend ends and the history begins!
The week of Muharram, Anegundi turns into this magical place, where people of all walks and religion come together in a procession that is a travellers treat. Come visit Anegundi, the ancient land of Vali & Sugreev. Visit this historic village during Muharram, where the entire village comes together to celebrate this festival in a unique way - all-night bonfires, fire-walkers, drums, dance and a mix of Muslim & Hindu traditions.
Engage with the local community to get a glimpse into their lives. Witness folk dance performances - watch, learn & dance along! Cycle. Shop. Meander down the Tungabhadra river in a coracle. Dinner on the river banks under the starry skies. Trek to the top of the Anjaneyadri Hill and watch the setting sun paint the sky with glorious resplendent colours. Visit pre-historic rock painting & burial sites.
Visit the fascinating ruins of the 15th-century city of Vijayanagar/Hampi and explore the rich mélange of temples, architectural splendours of its glorious past. The ruins – stark and silent reminders of a once great kingdom!
