The luxurious Sri Vitthala Shri Vijaya Vittala Temple complex in the "sunk into Oblivion" capital of the ancient Vajiyanagar Empire with the same name Vajiyanagara in the Indian state of Karnataka. Sri Vitthala was built in the 15th century, it is considered the largest and most famous architectural monument of Hampi, according to many researchers it was never completed. Vitthala is dedicated to one of the incarnations of the god Vishnu. The complex consists of many halls, passages and sanctuaries. "Singing columns" are installed in one of the halls. Its main attraction is the unique stone chariot Stone Chariot, originally it was the sanctuary of Garuda, the divine bird on which Vishnu moves. I highly recommend you to visit!

The temple is incredibly beautiful! The safety is amazing. Singing columns...you can go inside and "touch" the story. Everyone will have impressions. It is an open-air museum.
It is especially interesting when the guide explains to you the meaning of the symbols of columns and walls.

The temple is best known for its musical columns and stone chariot. Columns make musical sounds when they are hit, and each column has its own sound. For a small fee, the guide can perform this act once, or by scanning the QR code under the column, you can listen to its sound. The creation of the stone chariot was inspired by the chariot of the temple of the god Surya in Konak.
