The Swarajya Heritage Trips Are Back—This Time, To Hampi!
Hampi Retreat
One of Swarajya’s most beloved initiatives, the Heritage Tours, is back!
Be it during subscriber meetups, social media conversations, or casual interactions at events, our readers and friends never missed an opportunity to ask about our heritage tours.
In their short but impactful span, Swarajya Heritage Tours took our readers to some of the most culturally significant destinations in India: from the magnificent ruins of Hampi, Badami, and Pattadakkal to the sacred temples of Srirangam, Chidambaram, and Tiruvannamalai and many more.
Now, after a hiatus, we are thrilled to announce the return of the Swarajya Heritage Tours. And what better way to begin than by revisiting the historic capital of the Vijayanagara Empire, Hampi.
Why Hampi?
Hampi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a fascinating glimpse into India’s past. With its beautifully carved temples, ancient royal ruins, and stunning landscapes, it tells the story of a civilisation that reached incredible heights in art and architecture.
The Swarajya Heritage Retreat 2025 offers a special experience, making your trip to Hampi truly unforgettable.
