Medieval elephant parking

We had an extraordinary visit of Hampi today, the famous UNESCO world heritage site. When Europe was in the deep Middle Age, an advanced civilisation flourished here. Apparently Hampi was the second largest city in the world after Beijing at that time.

In the blip the stables for the 11 favourite elephants of the king. More pictures in the extra and more information on Wikipedia.


PS: just realizing that it‘s my 3333rd blip today
