About Pushkarini - Queen's Bath

Pushkarini - Queen's Bath is a historic stepped tank located within the remarkable ruined landscape of Hampi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in northern Karnataka. Stepped tanks of this kind were integral to the ceremonial and daily life of the Vijayanagara Empire, serving both practical and ritual purposes. Visitors come to admire the geometric precision of the stone-cut steps descending to the water's edge, which reflect the sophisticated engineering sensibilities of the era. The tank sits amid Hampi's extraordinary concentration of temples, palaces, and royal enclosures, making it a natural stop on any exploration of the heritage zone. Those staying in or around Hampi town can reach the site comfortably on foot or by hired bicycle, combining it easily with visits to nearby monuments along the same trail.
