Answer 2

Answer:

Due to the numerous historic temples, forts, and other buildings in Hampi, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Around the year 1500 AD, Hampi served as the Vijayanagar Empire's capital and, according to some accounts, the second-largest metropolis in the world at the time.

Explanation:

• Granite stones have created the mountainous terrain where Hampi is situated.
• This ancient temple is renowned for its exquisite construction. It is also renowned for 56 melodic columns, often known as the musical pillars, an astonishing architectural feat.
• When lightly tapped, these pillars produce musical sounds. The use of stones in the columns' construction is the most remarkable aspect.
• The community was also referred to as Kishkindha-Kshetra or Pampa-Kshetra. The name Hampi is an anglicized version of the Kannada word Hampi since it was derived from the Tungabhadra River's previous name, Pampa.
• Due to its dominance over internal trade on the Indian peninsula, with the exception of a few princes around the Malabar Coast, Hampi grew to be a significant city.

Thus this is the answer.
