The ancient place, Kishkindha, was ruled by the monkey-chiefs-two brothers, Sugriva and Vaii. After a quarrel with Vali, Sugriva along with Hanuman were driven out. They then went to stay at Matanga-parvata Hill. You can get a good view of the surrounding area from the top of this hill. While searching for Sita, who had been kidnapped by Ravana, Rama and Laksman came south and met; Sugriva and Hanuman. Rama killed Vali and restored the kingdom to Sugriva. While Hanuman went to search for Sita,, it is said that Rama stayed at Malyavanta Hill, which is on the road to Kampili about 6 km east of the Virupakshi,Temple.There is a Raghunath Temple there with a large Deity of Rama.
