Why are the Musical Pillars of Hampi special?
- Each pillar is carved from a single block of stone.
- They produce different sounds when gently tapped (like percussion instruments).
- They are part of the Mantapa (dance and music hall) in the Vittala Temple.
- They date back to the 15th century AD and the Vijayanagara Empire.
- The exact secret of their engineering is still not fully understood.
