The Elephant Stable in Hampi is an impressive structure that was used to provide shelter for the royal elephants of the Vijayanagara Empire. The elephant stable is located in the area that lies just outside the Zenana Enclosure..it is a historical place..The ancient stable is a major attraction among the tourists even today.

A gentle climb leads to an absolute treat. Amongst the impossibly perched boulders, is a sunset view that soothes the soul. Gentle hymns from the Virupaksha temple below waft over the hills & while you wait for the sun to drown in the horizon, there is just a sense of stillness, peace & fulfilment...!

2 storied building, with intricate architecture resembling a Lotus. It's said this was the resting/socializing place for the Royal women of the kingdom. One of the most beautifully preserved buildings in Hampi !

This area has a small indoor museum (no photos allowed) and the Treasury Building, which has some carved stone statues displayed all around the halls. There is a small fee to go inside.
