Tourist Places In Rameshwaram

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. However, there are also a few Rameshwaram points of interest, such as beaches and historic landmarks, which make it an ideal destination to visit for people from all walks of life. 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. This Rameshwaram guide attempts to familiarize a travelers with all the amazing

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.

    Bharatkatyal's 5 days trip to Rameshwaram

    All was good except my stay in Mist n Mount at Ooty. Although the location was very beautiful but staff was unavailable right from the beginning, specifically in early morning and night nobody was there. Infact when I told them that we have a flight tomorrow and will leave hotel early morning they t
    old me to vacate room on my own as the staff will come after 730. However they provided one Bread packet and 4 butter small in the night for breakfast. But if any problem exist nobody was there to attend. Also no hot water there in early morning both the days. However we manage it. Rest stay was very good. Also Driver was not cooperative enough. I mean to say that the driver should do according to customer but he was not going on as per itenary provided for sightseeing and was adamant I think. But he was very honest. So tell them to be cooperative in future. Overall it was a nice experience

    Ganesh's 4 days trip to Rameshwaram

    Communication between can driver and travel agent is zero. Due to this miscommunication our itinerary is not followed which lead to miss few places without visiting. Cab driver takes his own decisions without asking us and tell us at the end saying this is my plan. River rafting

    Anmoljain's 5 days trip to Rameshwaram

    This was the worst and the costliest trip of my life...all because of "book it forget it" travel company and travel triangle. Opposite to their name, they kept on forgetting the things and travel triangle guys also on the same pattern. Highlights of our trip:- While booking we asked them we nee
    d sedan car with carrier, travel agent confirmed the same thing, when we were about to leave from our home to railway station we called him again and confirmed the same thing , we had asked driver details couple of times he didn't shared those details (we were told that we will get driver details one day before of travelling). He shared us driver details when we were in the train, cleverly approx 7. When we called the driver he told me that he is not having carrier in his car as this is banned in entire Tamil Nadu (not sure if it true or not). When we asked same thing to travel agent he told us yes carrier is not available in car, You didn't tell us that you will be having more luggage.( Can someone please let me know what will be the other meaning of asking car with carrier on top of that) He forced us to pay extra 6300 rupees for some old model innova car. We got threatened by travel agent like pay 6300 or else deal directly with driver (Driver was from Madurai) At rameshwaram driver asked to pay 10 k else he will stop the trip. ( We had payed only 2 installments to travel triangle remaining amout was 15k + 6300( additional cab cost, agent told driver to collect the money from us and marked payment as done on portal) Rameshwaram trip and madurai trip was good as no more places to visit. On the day from madurai to Kodaikanal driver asked us check out late from hotel as his car is having some issues, he reached hotel to pick us at 12 , on hills car was not able go above 30 35 , 2.5 hrs journey become 5 hours journey for us. One full day wasted. For covering all the places mentioned in itinerary driver was asking more money from us and my travel agent was also forcing us to pay extra. Our Driver got changed 3 times during trip. Driver who was responsible for trip was not having proper plans to visit we were on same route for 2 days. All our time money energy wasted. Travel triangle guys also didn't listen to us, they told you directly deal with agent , agent asked us to deal with driver and driver was asking money for everything even for parking which was included in our package. This was our 4th trip with travel triangle 3 were good and this one was worst. No one was listening to our problems. Learnings :- don't believe in travel triangle and there agents this is the new way of looting the money from us, as we are out of city and had payed approx 80% of the amount to them. Note:- while talking to driver he told me that we are the 5th customer who are facing same issue, agent use to write many places to visit in itinerary which is not possible for us to go in same budget. How can I forget to mention our travel triangle advisor Abhijit...he was of no help worst fellow and worst company to book any trip. Nothing

    Trip was overall good. But the jack hilltop resort booked in Kodaikanal was pathetic. The room was smelly and it has mould growing on one wall.Very bad experience in that hotel. Other than that trip went smoothly and we enjoyed a lot. The cab driver mr. Pradeep was very helpful and polite. Visit to
