About Vittala Temple & Stone Chariot
The Vittala Temple complex is one of Hampi's most celebrated Vijayanagara monuments. The ornate stone chariot, expansive courtyard and richly carved structures illustrate the sophistication of the empire's architecture. Allow enough time for the full complex rather than treating the Stone Chariot as a quick photo stop.
