A popular town in the heart of Ramanathpura District of Tamil Nadu, Rameswaram is associated with innumerable myths.
The major attraction of this city is the Ramanathaswamy Temple which is considered to be one of the most popular Hindu pilgrimage sites in South India.
Rameshwaram along with the other three temples of Dwarkadish, Puri and Badrinath complete the famous circuit of Chardham Yatra of India. Lord Shiva is the presiding deity of this temple. He is worshiped here in the form of Jyotirlinga. Thus the temple of Ramanathaswamy is counted among the Dwadash Jyotirlinga, (12 Pillars of Light).
It is believed that Rama worshipped Shiva here in Rameshwaram to do the penance of killing Ravana, the Brahmin.
