    Hemakuta simhasana means not golden chair. Hemakuta is a hill in Krnataka where the deity Virupaksha seated!! So “Hemakuta Simhasana” .The hill is situated to the south of Hampi village. It bears several small temples that predate the construction of Vijayanagara as the capital of the empire, some being as early as the 10th century. The hill was fortified when the main city was constructed, and a number of more recent temples, tanks, entrances, and gopurams exist on the hill, some of which were never completed.
