About Rameswaram
Rameswaram
Daiwik Hotels welcomes you to Rameswaram. This holy pilgrimage has called the devout to its wave lashed shores for centuries.
Lord Rama in Rameswaram
In Valmiki’s immortal creation, the Ramayana, Rama arrived at the seashore of Rameswaram trying to find a way to cross the sea to reach Lanka where Sita was being held by Ravana.
The Ramanathaswamy Temple
At the heart of Rameswaram stands the Ramathaswamy Temple, one of the greatest shrines in India. And Daiwik Hotel is just 3 km from the temple.
Festivals, Ramanathaswamy Temple
There are a number of weekly and annual festivals when the images of deities are taken out in procession. For example, every Friday at 9 PM the goddess Parvathavardhini is taken around the third prakara enclosure in a golden palanquin.
