Situated in the south-east of Pamban town in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/rameswaram-temple\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rameshwaram<\/a> block of Ramanathapuram district in Tamil Nadu, Dhanushkodi is the only land border between India and Sri Lanka. It measures only 45 meters in length and falls on the list of smallest places in the world. Belief of Dhanushkoti as a haunted place is getting stronger and tough by the time and the rumours resulted in the form of ban over roaming after sunset. The visitors must plan the visit to DhanushKoti in such a manner that they return to Rameshwaram by evening as the whole pathway of 15 KM is full of loneliness, mysteries and dreadful experiences.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4796\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Dhanushkodi.jpg\" alt=\"Dhanushkodi\" width=\"900\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Dhanushkodi.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Dhanushkodi-300x178.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Dhanushkodi-768x455.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Dhanushkodi-870x515.jpg 870w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With the spread of rumours, tourism is rising in Dhanushkoti. It won\u2019t be an exaggeration to say that the frequency of tourists at Dhanushkoti has increased in leaps and the rate is greater than any other tourist place in India. Looking to the same, Indian Navy has also set a naval station over here. Meeting of Indian Ocean\u2019s deep and capricious water with shallow and silent water of Bay of Bengal can be seen here. As the ocean is superficial, tourists can move in Bay of Bengal from here and can see colourful fishes, shells, corals and what not.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Suggested Tour<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/rameshwaram-tour-packages\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rameshwaram Tour Packages<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/dhanushkoti\/#Cyclone_Destroyed_Dhanushkoti\" >Cyclone Destroyed Dhanushkoti<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/blog\/dhanushkoti\/#MythologicalLegendary_Accreditation\" >Mythological\/Legendary Accreditation<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cyclone_Destroyed_Dhanushkoti\"><\/span><strong>Cyclone Destroyed Dhanushkoti<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Colorful life of the recent past can now also be seen in The Ruins at Dhanushkoti. Before the cyclone of 1964 Dhanushkoti was a flourishing tourist and pilgrimage town. As Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is only 18 miles from here, people used to transport goods between Dhanushkoti and Talaimannar (of Ceylon) and to cross the ocean, several ferry services were available. In reference to the needs of these passengers and devoted pilgrims several cloth shops and Inns were available. Dhanushkoti railway line which was not running to Rameshwaram at that time was destroyed in the 1964 Cyclone. It was the direct route from Mandapam to Dhanushkoti. That time, Dhanushkoti had a Railway station, railway hospital, Post Office and some Government Offices like a fish farm etc. This was the scene of an island from January 1897 to the time when Swami Vivekananda came along with his victorious feet from Colombo after taking part from Parliament of Religions held in USA.<\/p>\n<p>Spookily deserted this place is mystically beautiful in real. Although cyclone have really busted the lives here for a time yet Dhanushkoti beach makes for a marvelous sight to behold .Those endlessly\u00a0 stretching silvery and blooming sands attracts the tourism. The fact cannot be denied that the crystal clear water itself says, \u201cYes, Nature love is calling you\u201d. Age old ruins here makes the place like a dream feeling which cuts a person from this technical and eerie world. Calm, soothing and peaceful mood can be enhanced at heights here in the early morning. Sunrise at Dhanushkodi gives you a remembering and cherishing moment for lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Dhanushkoti is also known as a sacred spot where\u00a0 Lord Rama himself came here to absolve him of the sins of killing Ravana\u00a0 after defeating Ravana to perform certain rituals as described in Hinduism . The world knows Ravana as a sinful person yet he too possessed a positive side. Ravana was one of the greatest devotees of Lord Shiva, Brahmin by birth and used to come Dhanushkoti.<\/p>\n<p>To reach the shores of Dhanushkoti in an ordinary vehicle is not wise decision as the path is really sandy and hence a vehicle having four wheel drive is needed. Many Hindus go to the shores of Dhanushkoti to perform specific rituals and to have the sacred peacefulness of soul , mind and heart here. The meeting of the oceans, dip in the sea and silent shores makes the visit to Dhanushkoti a memorable and special journey. It is not at all crowded and is a great place for a half a day trip as told earlier .One\u00a0 can also find\u00a0 some shacks selling sea food. It is also known a s career oriented\u00a0 great place to shoot pictures for new photographers who wants to make their career in this field .The pictures of the rising and setting sun are marvellous and quixotic at this spot.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"MythologicalLegendary_Accreditation\"><\/span><strong>Mythological\/Legendary Accreditation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>According to the Hindu scripture Ramayana, Lord Rama assembled a causeway, called Ram Setu between the mainland and Sri Lanka, conducive to take his army across. As per the Ramayana, after the legendary victory Lord Rama, he kept his promise and crowned \u201cVibhishan\u201d as the new king of Lanka. The new king Vibhishan requested Rama to destroy the bridge and Rama broke the bridge with a one end of his bow. That is why the place since then is called as Dhanushkoti\u00a0 alias \u2018end of the bow\u2019 (Dhanush meaning \u2018bow\u2019 and Koti meaning \u2018end\u2019). It is also said by ancestors that Lord Rama spotted this place for the starting end of the causeway by his famous bow.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Check out<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pilgrimagetour.in\/ramayana-trail-india\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ramayana Circuit Tour Packages<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hindu pilgrims normally take holy bath here in the sacred confluence of 2 great oceans before starting their journey to Rameshwaram. Described as\u00a0 the broken residuals in a straight chain\u00a0 structure of shoals, coral reefs, a ridge formation is now known as \u201cRam Setu\u201d or \u201cAdam\u2019s Bridge\u201d. It is said that the pilgrimage to the holy city of Kashi \u201cMahodadhi\u201d (Bay of Bengal) and \u201cRatnakar\u201d (Indian Ocean) in North India is not complete without worshipping at Rameswaram, including the ritual bath at Dhanushkoti. \u201cSetu\u201d is a Sanskrit word used to describe causeway\/bridge. This bridge, made by Lord Shri Rama to reach and conquer Lanka and get Sita back is now attracting the attention of tourists from India and World.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dhanushkodi also known as Dhanushkoti is the south eastern tip of India, a ghost- town (abandoned village) from where Sri Lanka is clearly visible.
