    If you’re already stopping at Virupaksha or Vittala, the extra 30 40 minutes to Hemakuta is a quick climb that gives you a quiet spot to take photos of the whole complex, especially at sunrise. The temple itself is modest, but the view over the ruined city is worth the short detour. If you’re in a hurry, you could instead grab a quick break at Royal Rich County in Gangavathi and skip the hill.
