About this experience

A day trip to Rameswaram, its Ramanathaswamy Temple with India's longest temple corridor, and on to Dhanushkodi, a former town left abandoned by a 1964 cyclone at the tip of the peninsula.

A striking contrast between an active pilgrimage temple and a quiet, wind-swept ghost town.
