The Vande Bharat Express trains have elevated the face of Indian Railways. The speed, world-class amenities and other facilities make it even more admirable. Before this, passenger trains like Jan Shatabdi were considered to be the fastest. However, Vande Bharat has surpassed their speed!

During the G20 Culture Working Group in Hampi, Karnataka, the G20 delegates got a chance to explore its rich history. They took a coracle ride across the glistening Tungabhadra River. The lovely Vijaya Vittala Temple was then visited after that. According to the dignitaries, during the coracle ride, a kaleidoscope of colour appeared before their eyes, enveloping them in a world of vivid colours and cultural delights.
The next place was Hampi’s famous Vijaya Vittala Temple. Upon entering the temple complex, the G20 guests were greeted by an astounding display of craftsmanship. It served as a reminder of the aesthetic prowess of the Vijayanagara Empire. The iconic stone chariot, which served as the temple’s centrepiece, stood magnificently tall and was adorned with stunning sculptures.
Additionally, the intricate wheels on it demonstrated the sculptors’ skill and accuracy. They had produced this piece of art. The delegates were drawn in by the lifelike engravings that seemed to leap out of the stone and transport them to another era.
