One of our favorite places in India was discovering the temples of the ancient city of Hampi in Karnataka.
Dave was going through his photos of the Hampi ruins the other day, we decided that words just couldn’t do justice to this spectacular site. A photo lets you see just how spectacular Hampi is.

It feels as though you have stepped back in time and are actually living as people lived hundreds of years ago.
The Bazaar is bustling, the square is filled with energy and people worship at the temple. Hampi is a must for anyone visiting India.
