Jindal Vijaynagar Airport, Bellary, Karnataka
Hospet Bus Stop
Possibly the most fun you will possibly ever have in three days. Hampi has been a part of the tlow ecosystem ever since 2013, the one element which has kept Hampi a thrilling place to visit it the fact that each day in this network deprived ancient city is different.
Starting with a boat ride to get across to the hippie island, taking a cycle around the ruins or taking a moped to explore monkey temple. The cafe vibe in the night is similar to what one is used to experiencing in Goa but a lot less commercial.
