Once a magnificent Indian city, Hampi is a popular destination for tourists. This will encourage you to arrange your next vacation to the UNESCO World Heritage site if you are fascinated by ancient temples and have been itching to visit the remains of the magnificent city of Vijayanagar. The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) "introduced QR codes on 10 pillars" at the Vijaya Vitthala Temple in Hampi, according to a story by The Times of India. This allows visitors to scan the codes and hear 25-second musical snippets.The ASI, Hampi Circle's superintending archaeologist, Nihil Das, told TOI: "We have placed two QR codes on every pillar.
