Anjanadri Hill

Anjanadri Hill is believed to be the birthplace of Lord Hanuman according to Hindu mythology. Located across the Tungabhadra River from the main Hampi ruins, the hill features a temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman at its summit. The hill is named after Anjana, Hanuman's mother, and is considered a sacred site by devotees. The climb to the top involves ascending 575 steps, and the temple offers beautiful views of the surrounding landscape. The hill is particularly significant during Hanuman Jayanti, when thousands of devotees visit to pay homage. The temple at the summit houses a statue of Lord Hanuman, and the area is surrounded by natural beauty. The hill provides a peaceful and spiritual experience, away from the main tourist areas of Hampi, and offers a different perspective of the Hampi landscape.
