Calm, scenic sublime..Spirituality all aroundThe place, Rameswaram is considered to be one of the holiest places in India to Hindus, and part of the Char Dham pilgrimages. Hence, it is a very busy and active centre of pilgrimages.The main constituent by the virtue of which is known as The Ramanathaswamy Temple, which with reference to legends is told that the presiding deity here is usually referred to as a Linga with the name Sri Ramanatha Swamy, it is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas...If its possible, then you should take a bath in the sea..this beach of Rameswaram is famous for its beautiful sea featured with no waves at all and looks like a very big river.After taking a bath, you should proceed to the temple(althougha bath is not inevitable)This Ramanathaswamy temple situated near the sea on the eastern side of the island is renowned for its wonderful, ancient and unique architecture. The longest corridor in the world is here. The temple has a Gopuram about 40-50 meters tall.You can take the bath in the 22 kundas or wells, which would make a sense to you that the water here is of varied tastes and color.There is a popular belief that one needs to take bath in 22 theertha kundams with in the temple premises before having darshan. It is believed that the water from these kundas have some medicinal properties.After the bath, you can visit the Ramalinga and the Hanumanlinga as well as you can perform some prayers and rituals, if you would like.However,Remember one thing there can be many guides who can repeatedly approach you as soon as you enter the temple premises. One needs to negotiate the deal of how much to pay them if we need their services. Or, if you need a guide ,you can follow your hotelier, as they would most likely present you a guide in the first place.
Holy place for Hindus, everyone must visit here.Its really amazing creation,I love this temple.
Rameshwaram has the Longest Corridors in India and is visited by Millions of Hindu pilgrims throughout the year, they believe that the sins of a person washed away , when he/she took a bath in the so many Theerthas (holy water bodies inside the Temple) and worship the deity named Ramanathaswamy.Rameswaram – The name of this island is a Sanskrit word , if we split it as Ram + Eswaram, it gives us a literal meaning ...... “The place where Eswara was worshiped by Rama”. The ancient Indian Epic Ramayana of 7292 BC depicts this very event , the worship performed by Lord Shri Ram and his wife Sita. This story is the main reason for Rameswaram to become a Holy place and to attract millions of pilgrims.The temple was built by Pandya kings in the 11th / 12th century & then restored by Sethupathy kings few centuries later...has immense historic value.It is a great experience to visit the temple, once you entered, you will get peace of mind, well maintained. never forget to visit sea shore behind Agnitirtham, taste local banana bhaji and green coconut,No camera or mobile phones allowed inside the temple. Better to keep thise inside vehicle/room.
According to the Ramayana, Rama, who is the seventh avatar of the god Vishnu, prayed to the god Shiva to absolve him of the sin of killing a Brahmin committed during the war against the Rakshasa king Ravana in Sri Lanka. Rama wanted to have a large lingam to worship Shiva. He directed Hanuman, the lieutenant in his army, to bring a lingam from the Himalayas. When Hanuman was delayed in bringing the lingam, Devi Sita built a small lingam out of the sand available in the seashore, which is believed to be the lingam in the sanctum.There are sixty-four Tirthas (holy water bodies) in and around the island of Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, India. According to Skānda Purāṇa, twenty-four of them are important. Bathing in these Tirthas is a major aspect of the pilgrimage to Rameswaram and is considered equivalent to penance. Twenty-two of the Tirthas are within the Rāmanāthasvāmī Temple.[ The number 22 indicates the 22 arrows in Ramas quiver. The first and major one is called Agni Theertham, the sea (Bay of Bengal).There are 22 theerthams in the form of a pond and a well.

A Must See Temple in Tamilnadu.
Good....A spiritual place but if someone asked you money for the 22 wells bath pls dont go for it. There is no benefit in giving the money to pray but if you think to donate you just put your money into that Hundiyal which is useful for the Temples management...So Just be Positive. Good Vibes make you better.
One of the historic temples where Lord Rama and sita made a sand linga and prayed to Lord Shiva. This is one of the 12 Jothi Lingams.here the God is Ramanathaswamy and Ambal is Parvarthavarthini. Here we havr the Kodi Theertham.there are 22 wells which are very holy. This temple is located along the beach side.
What a temple! Just beautiful. But extremely crowded. The experience of the darshan is simply divine.
Wow. What a temple. Nice experience. Can worship the God very near. Due to corona theertham closed. Vehicles available for small tours. Rooms available all the time. Holy place for Hindus.

Being one of the most popular Shiva temples in the world, this temples got an amazing architecture and is really very huge. You get a unique opportunity to take bath in theertham (holy water) from different wells in the temple by which it is said that you gain more immunity. The main deity is a small Shivalinga which is very powerful. This temple is believed to have a connection with the Ramayana in the end.
According to the Ramayana, Rama, the seventh avatar of the god Vishnu, prayed to the god Shiva to absolve him of the sin committed during his war against the king Ravana in Sri Lanka.[2][3] Rama wanted to have a large lingam to worship Shiva. He directed Hanuman, the lieutenant in his army, to bring a lingam from the Himalayas. When Hanuman was delayed in bringing the lingam, rama built a small lingam out of the sand available in the seashore, which is believed to be the lingam in the sanctum.[4]
It is lovely place where I feel a good experience of Calm sea and blessings of Lord shivaAnd good and helping nature of Tamils🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sri Ramanathaswamy Temple is the most popular temple of Rameshwaram, which is a small island connected to the mainland via Pamban Bridge. It is undoubtedly the most important part of a Rameshwaram tour. Known for its intricate works, majestic towers and corridors this temple is a fine example of architecture excellence. This highly sacred temple is one of the 12 jyotirlingas in India and is visited by almost every Hindu devotee. This temple has 22 theerthams, bathing in which is believed to atone sins of devotees. Sri Ramanathaswamy temple is regarded with high significance even in holy scripture of Hindu religion. It is associated with Lord Rama and his successful rescuising of Goddess Sita after killing demon Ravana as while on their way back to Ayodhya, it is here that Lord Rama had worshipped Lord Shiva.According to the legend behind Sri ramanathaswamy Temple, Lord Rama had worshipped Lord Shiva here. Lord Rama, who is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, while coming back after killing demon Ravana had offered his prayers to Lord Shiva. Demon Ravana, who had abducted Goddess Sita, was a Brahmin king. As Lord Rama had killed him to end his cruelties and to rescue the Goddess, had decided to seek atonement by worshipping Lord Shiva. In order to offer prayers, Lord Rama had asked Hanuman to get lingam from Himalayas. However, Hanuman couldnt return with lingam on time owing to which Goddess Sita has created a lingam herself. Lord Rama then worshipped Lord Shiva at the pre decided auspicious moment. Pleased, Lord Shiva blessed Lord Rama and upon his request also manifested himself in the lingam. It is the believed that the same lingam is now present in the sanctum of the temple.As per the legend, the lingam brought by Hanuman from Kailash has also been kept in the temple. The lingam is known as Vishwalingam or Hanumalingam. As per the instructions of Lord Rama, prayers are offered at Hanumalingam first before offering prayers to the Lord Ramanathaswamy.
Temple is nice place one of the 12 jyotirling. Rameshwaram is the best place and the sea here is pretty much silent means the waves are not much aggressive as other seas.
Om Namah Shivay...This temple is dedicated to the Supreme God Lord Shiva and is one of the 12 Jyotirlinga in India. As you enter the temple premises you will experience something different within you. The overall atmosphere is really good here.
An Ancient Temple of Lord Siva Rama And Anjaneyar There is A story behind That. And Temple is so superb That O e must visit there to see the handicraft work and artwork of the temple building.It is located near The sea and at current situation of Corona we dont see anyone wearing a mask over there.They all are mask-free and we do not know why it is like that.and there are no cases of Corona virus too.
An amazing place for spiritual aspirants
Loved the temple, 100% spirituality.
Super please beautiful area
This temple is shown as closed in the Google search. Actually it is open except for Friday, Saturday and Sunday due to Corona restrictions. All the theerthams are closed and so devotees can not take bath now.This is a magnificent temple and must visit place. The parking area is aweful and it is a frustrating experience to find one. The roads around temple are pathetic and town administration should develop this. There are many touts but one need not have to hire one.
Location is easy to locate at Google Maps and a dedicated temples parking space (Charge Rs.20/-)
A very spritulised environment one of the four dhams also . So, quickly ready your backpacks and plane to go Rameshwaram temple. Quickly
Located in the centre of town, Ramanathaswamy Temple is a famous Hindu temple dedicated to the god Shiva. The temple is one of the 12 Jyotirlinga shrines, where Shiva is worshipped in the form of a Jyotirlinga meaning pillar of light. ... The temple has the longest corridor among all Hindu temples in India.
No words ❤️

Famous hindu temple.
Heritage temple. You will feel peace. More neatness should be maintained.
Great place with superb architecture of Dravidian... And shiv jyotirlinga
One of the Holy temple of India..... Awesome place to visit with family.
After the Dharshan we bath in all the 22 Holy wells inside the temple which purifies us and we feel like the lord had forgiven all our sins and show us the right way to show the courtesy and kindness to others.There are 23 teerthams (wells) in the temple complex, where Bath is essential for devotees, makes it more crowded people with wet clothes jostling.
Such a lovely place in all aspects.People are friendly and helpful to others.pls take local people help instead of others bcz they were faced huge impact in 60s cyclone .so they will not cheat othersIn tourism point of view lot of places are there.Mandapam rail bridge view while train passing train is super.Devotional view :No words to explain. I felt while visiting this is not new place.
This hindu temple dedicated to the god Shiva and located on Rameswaram island in the state of Tamilnadu India. It is also one of the twelve Jyotirlinga temples. This is famous amongst the hindu piligrims. One of the famous destination in Rameshwaram. Architecture, sculptures, carvings makes you speechless.
Happy to note the temple is net, clean and dry, as bath at the therrithum well are stopped due to corona fear.No proper instructions, to move around the temples and no sign boards.Still temple staff cheating the devotees and arrange for special dharshan by collecting money, without issuing the tickets at the counter and misusing the online booking.Temple management has to look into this.
Rameswaram Temple, one of the best temples in India, which is situated on an island, has only two ways to go here. 1. can go by train 2.or by roadProcess First of all, you have to take a bath in the sea, then you have to take a bath of 22 pools, after that you have to change your clothes.Then you can enter Lord Shiva and worship Lord Shiva.
A truly great temple. Satyam Shivam Sundaram.
Rameswaram Jyothirlinga is great holy place. It gives spiritual satisfaction and mentally feel good place. Every one must visit this holy place. Om Namashivaya Om.
Kindly plan trip on weekdays. There is no crowd in weekdays. You can do dharshan peacefully and enjoy the place and dhanushkodi too
The temple is very bug and very old. Mobiles are not allowed. Dress shall be decent to enter temple. Mornings are generally crowded, rath yatra also takes place. We could see on the day after shivratri.
Nice place...
Its a beautiful temple made during ancient time. The temple is dedicated to lord Shiva. Its is more than 1500 years old
Worlds Largest Corridor with unique Paintings on the roof and one of the most important pilgrimage site for Hindus in India. And the most beautiful Island City for International tourists...
We visited Rameshwaram by car from Delhi In November 2020. The drive on Pamban bridge was one the best experience in my life. This was my second visit to Rameshwaram, the first one was 22 years ago. We stayed at Goswami Mutt in Rameshwaram. It is one of the best and cheapest places to stay in Rameshwaram. The temple is usually empty nowadays due to Corona and you can have a darshan in just 10 minutes. The temple is situated just next to seashore. There are lots of hotels and Dharmshala near temple where you can get accommodation from 500 rupees to 2500 rupees depending on your budget. The food is quite cheap and the tea served in most of places is prepared in a classic south Indian way and people from north India will definitely cherish the taste of the tea. The weather is moderate through out the year. Do try out the Vada Sambhar served in various food stalls behind the temple. It is said that brining Ganga water and pouring it on the Shivlinga washes out the sins and pleases Lord Shiva immensely. This is one the four dhams which one must visit in his or her life time. The beach is just one minute walk from the temple. The temple is managed very well. Do visit it once in a life time.
Great Temple shows the capacity of Tamil kings who built this marvellous super structure.
Very positive vibes one feels. Must visit lifetime experience. Divine place. Amazing
A must visit temple of India. Before visiting this temple one must take bath in 22 wells .The wells are located on the other side of main entrance . The surrounding of temple is very polluted especially near the sea side. The corporation should take action on keeping the temple surroundings clean.
Great temple.. Huge premise.. Not to miss
What a splendid temple and its architecture.. I had a lovely darshan and the visit to Dhanushkodi is another attraction..
It was extremely a pleasant and happy visit. Reached early morning, refreshed and did the rituals. Have taken bath in all theertham and visited God. It was really a refreshing place. I felt Gods presence.
Punniya sthalam for Hindus. In the northern India we have varanasi, in the southern part of India extreme end is Rameswaram temple. People perform last rites for departed souls here, there are naazhi kinaru (well) one must take bath to complete the rituals. During weekends temple is closed because of this pandemic. Those who wish to visit can check before reaching here.
Spiritual feeling
Beautiful temple. A must visit temple for both Vaishnavite as well as Shaiva devotees.

Indias most famous temple, good Climate, Beautyful Temple ,Beautyful Architecture
Temple is good but upkeep is very poor. As devotees from all over India visit, its a tough task to enforce discipline. But the administration is willing, it can do wonders to improve the temple a lot.
Ramayana is spread in every inch of this town. Hindus must visit this temple at any cost and take bath in all 22 kunda. APJ memorial is also herr
Here lord shree ram was established shiva mandir.
Beauty of Sanatan Dharma cannot be defined in a more beautiful way other than the Legend of the Rameswaram Mandir in Tamil Nadu – The only Dham of the Char Dham which is dedicated to Mahadev.The foundation of the present day Mandir, is said to have been laid down by Adi Shankaracharya Ji. Later contributions were done by Sethupathi or Raghunatha Thevar. Jaffna kings of the Sethupathy dynasty also contributed immensely.
The temple in its current structure was built during the 12th century by Pandya Dynasty. The temple has the longest corridor among all Hindu temples in India. ... The rulers of Sri Lanka contributed to the temple – Parakrama Bahu (1153–1186 CE) was involved in the construction of the sanctum sanctorum of the temple.
Very beautiful temple and many beaches around.. but we must keep it clean
Old Sculpture & state.......... blessed to see the architectural skill done by our old peoples .... pleasant surroundings & peaceful atmosphere
