Overview

About this yatra

Rameshwaram, one of the four Char Dham, is where Lord Rama is said to have worshipped Lord Shiva. The temple's vast corridors and 22 sacred wells are remarkable.

Our southern yatra pairs Rameshwaram with the magnificent Meenakshi temple at Madurai and a visit to the sunrise/sunset point at Kanyakumari.
