Rameshwaram is considered a place of religious importance by people all over the country. A town in Tamil Nadu, Rameshwaram is located on Pamban Island, which is separated from the mainland by the Pamban channel. Considered one of the four major pilgrimage places of the country, it goes without saying that most of the places to visit in Rameshwaram are of the religious nature.

Rameshwaram has something or the other to offer to visitors of all age types and preferences, from children to the elderly, from families to couples and from friends to solo travelers.

Some of the most popular Rameshwaram attractions include the Sri Ramanathaswamy Temple, also known as the Rameshwaram Temple, which is famed for its collection of lingas. It is a temple dedicated to Lord Shiv. Some of these lingas are built of sand, salt, stone, marble and various other material. Kothandaramaswamy Temple is another one of the most popular Rameshwaram tourist attractions. This temple is located on the beach, and houses idols of Sita, Ram, Lakshman and Hanuman. The Agniteertham sacred bath is also a place where one can spend some time. This is a sacred bath spot for pilgrims from all over the world, and is the only place of its kind that is located outside a temple complex.

The Ariyaman Beach is considered the best beach in Rameshwaram, and it is actually the best place to spend some time at with friends and family in the evening after a hectic sightseeing tour. It is a 150 m wide beach, which stretches on for at least 2 kms. There is also a museum, an aquarium and a children’s park here as well, offering plenty of entertainment options to visitors. The Dhanuskodi beach is another one of the immensely popular Rameshwaram local sightseeing places that one can spend time at.

Other options for Rameshwaram local sightseeing include the Ram Setu, or Adam’s Bridge, as it is also known. It is a historic bridge that has been constructed out of limestone shoals. It is said to be the mythological bridge that Lord Ram constructed for gaining entry into Lanka, the den of Ravan. The Water Bird Sanctuary also warrants a visit when here, since it is a great place to enjoy solitude and watch local and migratory birds.

There are also a few options for sightseeing near Rameshwaram, such as Ramanathapuram. It is an ancient town, with a once opulent palace being the best place for an exploration. Another important tourist place near Rameshwaram temple includes Erwadi, another pilgrimage spot. This one houses the 800 year old tomb of Saint Sultan Ibrahim Syed Aulia. In December, a festival to honor the saint takes place, which is attended by many visitors from around the country.

If enjoying a one day sightseeing in Rameshwaram, make sure to visit some of the most important temples, along with a few beaches to really get to know the place. If visiting for a longer duration, make sure to fit in all of the above places of interest on your Rameshwaram visit.

    Overall trip was good. Driver and tempo traveller was also good. However, hotel selectiont from agent was not at par. Hotel in kanyakumari was pathetic. I recommend travel agent to take care in hotel bookings. Average hotels. Although, coordination of travel agent was good. All the place

    Paresh's 6 days trip to Rameshwaram

    Overall it was good arrangements, however, arrangement at Kanyakumari was not as desired. May be Travel Triangle should get involved more, it was the travel agency Back2holidays.com that was in touch with us, however, during the entire trip not a single communication was received from TT.

    Alokananda

    Kolkata

    Alokananda's 5 days trip to Rameshwaram

    We had a very pocket-friendly trip at Coorg and Ooty, thanks to Travel Triangle for arranging such a wonderful trip. The timings were perfect coinciding with the nature's intricate way of displaying it's beauty throughout our trip. We started our trip from B'lore to Coorg and reached our destination
    at night due to traffic along the way but the Jungle Hill Resort was mesmerizing and quite well kept with a 4-bedded deluxe room. We visited the spectacular Golden Temple or one of the largest Tibetan Monastery which is also known as Namdroling Monastery. It encompasses the large school for the young monks and bave beautiful small cafes and eateries and souvenir shops for the tourist to check out. We found it had a beautiful view of the jungle and mountain view in the morning. The food was on the expensive side but we had breakfast buffet included in our package. Abbey Falls and the views of the meadows of Mandal petti were breathtaking. At Puspagiri National Park, it didn't feel like we were in India that showcased the best views of Nilgiri Hills adorned with the Nilkurungi plants. Rest of the places to visit were good but their slight overpriced such as Coffee Plantation tour, Dubbare Elephant Camp. Our hotels rooms at Ooty were disappointing. Rooms received from Kemp's Cave at their neighbouring building called The Baron's who gave us rooms with dirty linens, broken window lock, malfunctioning bathroom door and intercom. It was difficult to communicate with hotel staff although the reception staff were fast in sending help. Only the linens were changed and bathroom door was fixed. Rest were not fixed during our two days stay. The sightseeing was very good especially what made our day was the toy train ride from Ooty to Coonoor. The whole place was standstill due to traffic during public holiday so we had to resort to walking down the hill to reach the Ugadamandalam Railyway Station in Ooty. Pykara Falls and Lake, Wenlock Downs are picturesque places to remember in this trip. We opted out to visit Tea Factory and Doddabetta Peak due to heavy traffic. Mr. Rahul Kumar from All India Holiday has helped us before and throughout our trip to customise it and with payments at every juncture to make it a hassle-free ordeal. He have been very hospitable, content and patient in managing our trip . Travel Triangle and team has yet again made it possible for us to collect the best memories from hills of Ooty and Coorg. The best part of this trip was the journey through Bandipur Tiger Reserve and Madumalai Tiger Reserve when heading towards Ooty from Coorg via Bangalore-Mysore-Ooty Highway. We were surprised to spots innumerous deers, peacock, peahens, monkeys, wild Elephants and Giant Indian Squirrels. The reserves are well maintained with strict rules that are followed while traveling through them. We were lucky to get the glimpse of this reserve twice and both the times we have got to spot the animals.
