Nice viewpoint of Hampi

Bonito mirador de Hampi

Pequeña colina situada a las afueras del pueblo de Hampi. Además de ser un perfecto mirador de la ciudad (sobre todo del templo Virupaksha), es famoso por ser donde los turistas terminan el día contemplando como el sol desaparece por el horizonte. Además nos podemos pasear por las ruinas de alguno de los templos de la colina.
Small hill just outside the village of Hampi. Besides being a perfect vantage point of the city (especially the Virupaksha temple), is famous for being where tourists contemplating ending the day as the sun disappears over the horizon. Moreover, we can walk through the ruins of one of the temples on the hill.
