Akka Tangi Gundu

~ Boulder archway

 The natural archway like boulder formation
The natural archway like boulder formation
These are two giant boulders leaning against each other, making an archway like formation. You can find them on the left side of the main road when you go from the Underground Shiva Temple towards Hampi bus station. The road almost passes through under the stones. Akka Tangi Gundu means ‘sister stones’ in the local language. The local folklore has it that it that they were two sisters and they became stone as a curse when they ridiculed the place!
