The correct answer is option 3 - Hampi. Vijayana-gar, a medieval city, is now known as Hampi. This historical city, located in present-day Karnataka, India, was the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire. Hampi is renowned for its magnificent architectural ruins and monuments that showcase the grandeur and prosperity of the Vijayanagara Empire. The city was established in the 14th century by the Vijayanagara rulers, who built numerous temples, palaces, and other structures. However, in the 16th century, Hampi was sacked and destroyed by invaders, leading to the decline of the empire. Today, Hampi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts tourists from around the world who come to explore its rich history and captivating beauty.
