Hampi exploring!

Today it was time for Hampi exploring. Our driver drove us there and then set us up with a guide. They cooperate so the second we got to the ruins the guide knew who were were and who our driver was 😅
Thankfully we met an American guy from the train there and could split the cost of the guide with him. The tour was nice, it lasted all day and our new friend was super cool. He lives in LA, works for an evil consulting company, likes India a lot (it’s his 7th time here) and he went to Coachella dressed only a towel.🎊
In the middle of the tour we had a very nice lunch, thali!😋

We learned that some of the stone pillars in the temples were used to play music. Depending on how they were cut, shaped and which dimensions they had, they made sounds of different instruments (see the video).

We went to all the most important temples (will look up the names later), saw a lot of monkeys along the way and enjoyed the most beautiful sunset in the evening. The views are incredible in Hampi. We were exhausted by 7pm, had dinner at the hotel and called it a night.

Enjoy the pictures!Read more
