India’s important Pilgrim: Rameshwaram

Rameshwaram (spelled as Rameswaram too), is one of the most significant pilgrims and one of the Chaar Dhaam’s of Hinduism. Not just Pilgrims, it is equally cherished by the Nature lovers, due to pristine nature, crystal clear waters of Bay of Bengal and The Indian Ocean.
Rameswaram is at the Southernmost tip of the Indian peninsula, on Pamban Island and is the nearest way to reach SriLanka.

Mythological Importance of Rameshwaram:

In Indian Mythology, Rameshwaram, the holy town, was the one, where Lord Rama and the Vanara’s build the “Sethu” (bridge) of floating stones over the Sea to reach Lanka and rescue Sita from the clutches of Ravana. According to the Ramayana, Lord Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana had worshipped and prayed to Lord Shiva at Ramanathaswamy Temple, after their war with Ravana, which killed many demons and the demon king, Ravana.

This temple has the longest corridor’s amongst all Hindu temples which define its grandeur. This temple is closely linked with Ramayana and has two Lingam’s, one of which is said to be built by Sita and another is said to be brought by Lord Hanuman.
The sea around 500mts from the temple is very calm and is said to be a perfect place for bathing. Usually, people are expected to bathe and then opt for Pooja at the main Temple.

It is the place of Confluence, where you can see the Indian Ocean (with rough waters) at one side and Bay of Bengal (with calm waters) at another. This beach is enchanting for its scenic beauty, and cannot be missed while at Rameswaram.
