Now, read my experience below
After visiting the Virupaksha temple, we grabbed our bikes and went on a ride through the Bazaar. We parked and found an exhibition of photographs there. The comparison was between the photographs of Alexander Greenlaw in 1853 and John Gollings in 1983 have been made. Hampi looked different in 1853 and a lot of structures had fallen down by the 19th century. The fact that Hampi was in a remote location and the ruins found pretty recently added to the damage of many structures. Even today, excavations are on in many Bazaar areas. We then saw the Nandi bull and walked towards the Mathanga hill. Mathanga hill is a great place to see the sunrise and some of us decided to go there next morning. We also caught a view of some of the boulders that faintly resembled different shapes like the one that looked like a face. The hilltop is also a great place to view the Achyutaraya temple.
We also saw a local family on a picnic outing having lunch. They have been coming here for the past 15 years, 3 times a year to offer puja at the temple. After seeing some of the recently excavated temples like the one dedicated to the snake gods, we moved on to the Achyutaraya temple. The temple was constructed by Achyutaraya, successor of Krishnadevaraya and destroyed by the muslims in the 16th century. The temple is dedicated to Lord Tiruvengalanatha, a form of Vishnu and the temple complex and the ruined market street in front of it sit in a semi secluded valley created by two hills - the Gandhamadana & Matanga hills.
We then walked along the Sule Bazaar, once the famous courtesan street. There is also a beautiful water tank which was used by the courtesans. Also worthy of mention that this street along with the tank looks panoramic from the top of the hill. We walked down to a small shop selling tea, coconut water, some biscuits and snacks. This is where we caught our first view of the Tungabhadra. We were too tired to move on and took some rest at the tea shop. We also got to see the weighing scale that was used by the kings to extend offerings to the Gods. In the past, gold and other precious stones were weighed in scale to the weight of the king and offered.
