Episode Summary:   Beyond Hampi's world-famous Vijayanagara ruins lies a hidden landscape of ancient mythology that most tourists never discover. Join us as Nagendra shares his personal journey to uncover the birthplace of Hanuman and the sacred sites where the Ramayana's epic stories unfolded thousands of years ago.
