Blessing from the revered Ramanathaswamy Temple
Rameswaram and ancient, holy temples go hand in hand. In fact, when people think about the former, the latter definitely comes to mind! Trust us, this is not an exaggeration. Rameshwaram is home to some of the most significant and ancient temples of India. And among the long list of temples in this city is the Ramanathaswamy Temple. This is also one of the holy char dhams of India. As you reach the temple, a wave of devotion will gently touch your face and the vibrant architecture of the place will take your breath away. The intricately carved towers, the charming ornate corridors and the fascinating kamalam lotus art on the ceiling, oh, such a treat to the eyes!
Another surprise awaits you inside the temple. See, Rameshwaram is known to be dedicated to Lord Ram, but the most famous temple of the city is not dedicated to Lord Ram. The presiding deity of the temple is actually Lord Shiva. You will see two shiva lingas placed inside the temple. Offer your prayers in front of the lingas and see how your heart is filled with calm and devotion as you spend your time here. Now, hopefully, you can understand why visiting this temple and taking its blessing will be a phenomenal experience.
