RAMESWARAM

After feasting eyes with the darsan of these august Murthis, the visitors go to Perumal shrine lying to the North West of the Devi Mandir.  The broad long statue of palli Konda Perumal is a bewitching sight which they esteem most.  Another important darsan which they avail is the Sayanagriha located in the North eastern corner.  It is here the gold image of the Lord is placed in the Unjal along with the Devi's golden idol every night and offered, Sayanapuja.  It is a sight worth availing.  

The Sukra Vara Mandapam infront of the Main mandir enshrines the huge idols of Ashta Lakshmis.  Their size and posture detain the visitors long. Next they visit the Sethu Madhava shrine lying behind the main shrine between the second and third corridors.  As the idol is made of white marble it goes by the name of Svetamadhava swamy.  Its beauty is arresting. Paying homage, they move to the Nataraja shrine situated in the North Eastern corner of the outer corridor.  The size and decoration are quite attractive.
