Anegundi

Anegundi is a historic village in Koppal district, cradled by hills and the Tungabhadra River, directly across from Hampi. Once the first capital of the Vijayanagara Empire, Anegundi still carries that legacy in ruins like Gagan Mahal, the former royal palace, and in sacred sites such as Pampa Sarovar, one of India’s five holy lakes tied to the Ramayana. Beyond its temples and monuments, the village has quietly built a name for handmade banana-fibre crafts, giving visitors a glimpse of both ancient history and living local craft.
