This iconic chariot housed within the Vithala (another name for Lord Vishnu) complex was built in the 15th century by King Devaraya. This complex is a must visit on every Hampi itinerary. Appreciate the craftsmanship of the towering gateways, intricately carved pavilions and structures and the unique musical pillars.
