Description:
Nature Walkers has brought a new destination and new itinerary for this year’s New Year 2020.
We bring out a time travel journey through a story crafted in stones about 600 years ago. Welcoming the New Year 2020 with lots of adventure and enthusiasm.
This year Nature Walkers is hosting a Hampi Cycle Exploration Event covering numerous ruins of Ancient Temples and Monuments from Vijayanagara Empire with a hint of backpacking Hampi town and trekking through its gigantic boulders.
Hampi mesmerizes every traveler with its beautiful history and culture. A pictures sheer spread and magnitude of structures amongst the hillocks full of rocks and trees.
It is placed close to 350km north of Bangalore and east of Karnataka.
It’s charismatic even in its ruined state, attracting thousands of visitors every year. Vast stretches of boulder-strewn hills make the backdrop of Hampi unique. Dotted around the hills and valleys are 500 plus monuments.
Among them are beautiful temples, palaces, aquatic structures and ancient market streets. You could also witness royal pavilions, royal platforms, treasury buildings, the list is practically endless. Hampi is a backpacker’s paradise, the same way a Pilgrim’s delight.
