Spiritual Stones by Fiona Dunlop

Hampi: The ruins of this 14th century kingdom lie in central India, a day’s drive by creaking Ambassador from Goa. Gigantic boulders, crumbling temples, a slow river, pilgrims, parakeets and monkey descendants of Hanuman - it’s one of those rare and magical places where natural wonders merge into manmade and mythical ones.
