Workation in Hampi: the essentials
From 1336 to 1565 Hampi was the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire, and around 1500 it may have been the second-largest city in the world. Its UNESCO-listed ruins spread across a landscape of granite boulders beside the Tungabhadra River, and the Virupaksha Temple is still in active use. Climbers come for the bouldering, and long-stay visitors tend to settle across the river in Virupapur Gaddi or Sanapur. Life here revolves around ruins and slow days; power cuts are routine, and March to May is very hot. Hosapete has the nearest railway station, and Jindal Vijaynagar Airport is about 25 km away.
