im Hintergrund die Trinity Chruch und dahinter das "One Wall Street". Die Kirche war beim Bau noch das höchste Gebäude der Stadt - heute wirkt sie fast schon wie ein Bungalow in Mitten der gigantischen Hochhäuser.

Hampi was the capitol of the Vijayanagara Hindu kingdom in the early 16th century and by 1500 CE the 2nd largest city in the world after Beijing. The Vijayanagara empire was defeated by a coalition of Mughal sultanates, its capitol conquered and destroyed in 1565. Today the ruins of over 1,000 monuments, temples and fortifications are spread over a vast area in a rocky terrain with bizarre boulder formations, all designated as UNESCO World Heritage site.
