点评:Visited this monument on the 29th of October 2026. The Elephant Stables are among the most impressive and best-preserved monuments of Hampi. They stand immediately beside the Zenana Enclosure and Lotus Mahal in the Royal Centre. What is remarkable about them?
* The building consists of 11 large chambers, arranged in a long, symmetrical row.
* The chambers have high arched entrances and lofty domes, giving the building an unusually grand appearance for an animal stable.
* The central chamber is larger and has a raised square structure above it.
* The different dome forms—circular, ribbed, octagonal and vaulted—show the Indo-Islamic architectural influence present in Vijayanagara architecture.
* They were traditionally identified as the place where the royal elephants of the Vijayanagara Empire were housed.

* 整座建筑由11个大型厢房构成,这些厢房呈长条状对称排列。
* 每个厢房都设有高高的拱形入口与高耸的圆顶,使得这座建筑作为一处牲畜饲养场所而言显得格外宏伟壮观。* 中央大厅规模较大,上方还有一个凸起的方形结构。
* 各种形式的穹顶——圆形、带肋条形、八角形以及拱顶形——体现了印度-伊斯兰建筑风格对毗奢耶那伽罗建筑的影响。
* 传统上,这里被认为是毗奢耶那伽罗帝国王室大象的饲养场所。
