Hampi – Royal Area

Our wonder trail into the Royal Enclosure in Hampi:

The Queen’s Bath (a UNESCO World Heritage Site): a colossal bath that exemplifies the architectural excellence prevalent during the days of the Vijayanagara Empire, built in the Indo-Islamic style, more than 500 years ago, believed to be constructed for the women of the royal family of Vijayanagara.

Near the Queen’s Bath, is the magnificent Stepped Tank (Pushkarani), a stunning example of Vijayanagara architecture with symmetrical steps, ornate carvings, and a geometric design, used for rituals and royal purposes, showcasing advanced water management. The structure is particularly impressive for its symmetry, precision, and the quality of its construction, and remains one of the most photographed and admired structures in Hampi.
