I said Hampi was about 5 things. Till now I've mentioned 4, but I'm missing the most important. The small town of Hampi is situated in the middle of hundreds of ancient Jain temples.
The architecture perfectly combines with the rocky formations, as if the rocks had eroded to form beautiful figures Ganesh, Shiva and company. You can spend hours and even days sightseeing the temples, or as everybody says, "templing".
They never seem to finish and sometimes you have to go a long way. Though I only dedicated one day to this activity, I heard that the most impressive and free temples to visit are nearby the touristy area. Without a doubt, worth taking a look.
At the end, all this perfect combination provide a sensation of peace and harmony that makes it difficult to leave the place. However, I managed to stay only for week, but I assure you it's possible to just lay back and stay forever.
