Ranganatha Temple

The Ranganatha Temple, also known as the Vishnu Temple, is a rectangular shrine dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Situated close to Hampi Bazaar, it's often passed by along the riverside trek path. The temple features a stepped porch and, while the sanctum sanctorum is typically unlit, images within are visible during daylight hours through a metal grill door. It depicts Vishnu reclining on the serpent Ananta. While historically significant, the temple currently suffers from a lack of maintenance and preservation efforts.
