Chariot Temple | Hampi
The Temple in the form of a Chariot has become one of the iconic landmarks of South India and is almost used as a representative image for the architecture of the glorious Vijayanagara Empire, and is also printed on the currency notes of India! It’s located in the premises of the Vitthala Temple in Hampi, which along with numerous other monuments and temples in Hampi are included in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Hampi was the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire from 1336 to 1566 AD and hence most of the monuments in Hampi including the Chariot Temple are about 700 years old.
