So Hampi- the unusual village. There is an incredible number of cultural monuments and temples located in.
In this page I will list a few of them:

Raghunath Temple Malyavanta Swami.
Temple Malyavanta Raghunatha Swami is 3 km down the road. Its interior walls are decorated with interesting images of fish and sea creatures.
Hazara Rama Temple Complex: This ruined temple complex is known for the murals of the Hindu religion and well-designed gardens. More the temple is known for its carvings and inscriptions described in the legend of Ramayana. It has about 1000 carved inscriptions, depicting the story of Ramayana.
Complex Krishna Temple. This temple complex was discovered by archaeologists in the past decade, and the restoration work it is still ongoing. The temple has a sacred tank or Pushkarani, located on the eastern side.
In Vittala Temple there is a stone Chariot.
This is perhaps the most famous and well-known among the Hampi ruins. The iconic stone Chariot is a symbol of tourism in Karnataka. Recently, in the complex were installed spotlights that provide lighting at dusk, thus emphasising the grandeur of the architecture.
In the temple are the famous musical pillars. The British wanted to find out the cause of this miracle, they cut two pillars, to check if something inside the pillars produce sound. They did not find anything except the hollow columns.
On the road leading to the temple, it was a market, where they sold horses. Even today we can see the ruins of the market on both sides of the road. The temple contains the image of the Persians selling horses.
Next to the temples: Sunni Muslim mosque,
