Hampi has become a major tourist attraction and has been listed as a World Heritage site. There is little of the site that is under protection or control. Over the years, centuries, people have moved into the surrounding area, and into some of the ruins, with homes and farms. Now there is a move to get the people out of the major archaeologically valuable areas, but these are good areas for tourist related businesses, so the people don't want to go. This is like the beautification of old town.
