Vittala Temple Complex

Vittala Temple is Hampi's greatest architectural masterpiece — a 15th-century Vijayanagara complex housing the iconic Stone Chariot and extraordinary musical pillars that produce distinct tones when struck. A UNESCO World Heritage Site and the top Hampi sightseeing destination for architecture and photography. Entry fee applies; the Stone Chariot is the symbol of Karnataka tourism. Best visited at sunrise before tour groups arrive. The 64 musical pillars are one of the great engineering mysteries of medieval India.
