Bhargavi Sri
- Pushkarani, Queen's bath
Omkar Kulkarni
There is a stepped water pool known as the Pushkarni used by the people in those times. The architecture is similiar to the stepped wells of the Rajasthan. My friend joked about that these kings have spent a lot of money on the bathing and water system. :-)Pushkarni's were the part of water systems of the city. Every temple had its own Pushkarni. the Pushkarni lakes is were the gods and goddesses were taken for the coracle rides. During special occasions the gods were given baths in these lakes. The silence and the peace just makes you feel good and to be very frank you feel like this is what you had spent the money for.

The Famous Step Well (Pushkarani) in Hampi
11:30 AM: Stepped tank, locally known as Pushkarani has resemblance with some Rajasthani stepped tanks. There are some other stone monuments surrounding this stepped tank. As it open area, so do take some protection from the heat.
