Rameswaram is a major Hindu pilgrimage town on Pamban Island, linked to the mainland by the Pamban Bridge, and one of the four holiest Char Dham sites in India.
Ramanathaswamy Temple
Famous for its extraordinarily long corridors lined with carved pillars, and its tradition of ritual baths across 22 wells within the temple complex.
Pamban Bridge
A dramatic sea bridge connecting Rameswaram to the mainland, with a road bridge running alongside the historic railway bridge.
Dhanushkodi
A near-abandoned ghost town at the very tip of the island, devastated by a cyclone in 1964, now a striking spot where the sea narrows to a point.
Agni Theertham
The sacred beach right by the temple, where pilgrims take a ritual dip before entering Ramanathaswamy Temple.
Adam's Bridge Viewpoint
Near Dhanushkodi, offering a distant view of the chain of limestone shoals stretching towards Sri Lanka.
