To celebrate the festival of colours
Even though Holi is not widely celebrated in South India, Hampi, also known as the ‘City of Ruins,’ drenches itself in colours on this day. Hampi is best known for its stunning Vijayanagara ruins and temples, as well as its distinctive rocky landscape. The Holi celebrations in this small town are worth seeing and participating in.
