RAMESWARAM

RAMA THIRTHAM

It lies just at a kilometre distance from the temple.  The shrine enshrines a huge image of idol of Rama sculptured to perfection.  In front of it lies a small tank called Rama Thirtham.

SITA THIRTHAM

A few meters away to this lies Sita thirtham.  It is a step well tank and the head of the stairs in a small shrine is installed the image of Sita. It is on the road side.

LAKSHMANA THIRTHAM

About half a kilometer to this lies Lakshmana thirtham and there lies a shrine on its bank.  This tank is bigger in size and has greater pull; for many yatris take bath here.  It contains millions of fish of all sizes, and they move about listlessly. They enjoy eating certain eatables thrown into the tank.  It is a lovely pastime to feed them.  Many spend hours at this thirtham.
