Rameshwaram (Rameswaram) island packs a remarkable amount into a small area — a great Jyotirlinga temple, a sacred sea-shore, a dramatic land’s-end and an engineering landmark, all within an easy drive of one another.
The essential sights
- Ramanathaswamy Temple — the southern Jyotirlinga, with the 22 theerthams and India’s longest pillared corridor.
- Agni Theertham — the Bay of Bengal sea bath taken before temple darshan.
- Dhanushkodi — the atmospheric land’s-end town at the tip of the island, where the seas meet.
- Pamban Bridge — the historic sea bridge linking the island to the mainland.
- Gandamadhan Parvat — the hillock viewpoint with Rama’s footprint shrine.
- Panchmukhi Hanuman Temple, Vibhishan Temple and the Abdul Kalam memorial museum.
How to see it all
A day or two covers the island comfortably — the temple and Agni Theertham first, then Dhanushkodi, Pamban and Gandamadhan Parvat. Add Kanyakumari to the south for a fuller circuit.
