pilgrimage destination for devotees of both Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu. Situated in the
Ramanathpuram of Tamil Nadu, Rameshwaram is home to some of the most fascinating
temples in entire India. This island in the Gulf of Mannar is connected to the mainland at
Mandapam by Indira Gandhi Bridge. Completed in the year 1988, this was considered as
an engineering marvel, a feat unparalleled at that time.

Ramanathaswamy, this magnificent temple is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas situated in
different parts of India. Ramanathaswamy Temple also has its name in history books as it
has the largest hallway anywhere in India. The construction of Ramanathaswamy Temple
which was started in the 12th century was contributed to by many rulers. During its
construction period, many dynasties came and fell and each of them put their input into
the temple. The list of unique features in its construction seems to be endless. There is
this huge hallway that is of approximately 1220 meters in length. Throughout the length of
the hall, there are brilliantly carved pillars, the alignment of which will leave you totally
mesmerized. The 54 meter tall Gopuram has become the symbol of divinity in the heart of
many pilgrims; such is the beauty and presence of it.
Optional:- One can also, visit Dhanushkodi, it is one of the Tirthas in the island of
Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, India. This is located beside the ghost town of Dhanushkodi at
the eastern most tip of Rameswaram Island. Rama used his bow's (Dhanush) end (Kodi) to
