| What's cool about Hampi is that nothing seems to have happened here since the city was lost to civilization in 1565. Resurrected by the Indian antiquities department, it's mostly populated by tourists and those in the tourist trade. Yet most of the tourists that come here are more like hippies, so Hampi keeps a laid back atmosphere. The taxi drivers will also ask if you want hashish along with a taxi ride. | |||
