Octagonal Water Pavilion
T
he Octagonal shaped tent near the main roadside could have been once a spectacular water fountain. This is now practically in an abandoned stage with bushes and wild grass growing around it. You can see this protruding into the main road on the right side of the Kamalapura- Hampi main road, somewhere close to the Chandrashekara templeIf you stop and take a close look, you can see the remains of the water ducts, fountain parts etc. Just across the road is the Bhojanasala, the community feeding area with rows of food plates carved on the rock slabs.
