Visit To Rameswar Temple

Rameshwaram is a not-to-miss pilgrimage town located in Ramanathpuram District of Tamil Nadu. Separated from mainland India by the Pamban Channel, this tourist spot has been the centre of attraction for Hindu devotees across the world. A walk through the temples of Rameshwaram takes you to the days of the Ramayana and you would find enough evidences that will only reinforce your belief that there was once a man called Rama who walked on earth. Though the main attraction of this temple town is the great Ramanathaswamy Temple, one of the Char Dhams in India, yet its relatively clean sea beaches, lesser crowded temples and sacred ponds give another reason to the avid travellers to add Rameshwaram to their bucket list.  I am sure you are eagerly waiting for me to throw light on the attractions of Rameshwaram. So, without much ado let’s discuss about the places to visit in and around Rameshwaram in detail.


Ramanathaswamy Temple

One of the twelve Jyotirlinga Temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple of Ramanathaswamy is an architectural excellence built in the 17th century. A must visit pilgrimage for both the Vaishnavite as well as the Shaiva sect of Hinduism the temple constitutes a major part of the popular spiritual tourism destinations in India. The actual temple is believed to have been built by Lord Rama himself and thus it has gained an esteemed position in Indian mythological reference.

Five Faced Hanuman Temple
Highly revered by the Hindus, the temple of Five Faced Hanuman is only 2 km from the Ramanathaswamy Temple. It is believed that Hanumana revealed his five-faced form for the first time in this place. The statue of Lord Hanuman is smeared with sindoor and worshipped with utmost devotion. The temple here enshrines the statues of Rama, Laxman and Sita. There is a floating stone in the temple which is believed to have been used during Sethu Bandhanam as mentioned in the Ramayana.

Ariyaman Beach

An ideal place to spend a relaxing evening with your friends or family, Ariyaman Beach is located in Ramanathapuram Tourists can enjoy boating in this beach or get involved in different water based sports like wind surfing or water scooter ride. The beach has a children’s park, an aquarium and a museum as well.

Kothandaramaswamy Temple



Annai Indira Gandhi Road Bridge
Claimed to be the first sea bridge in India, Annai Indira Gandhi Road Bridge or Pamban Bridge is a cantilever bridge on Palk Strait that connects Rameshwaram Island with the mainland India. Initially, the name used to refer the rail route only which has a double leaf bascule section midway. This double leaf bascule functions well till date and it can be raised to let ships go. The bi-lane road passing next to this bridge is another attraction in Pamban and obviously allows you to have a glimpse of the railway bridge if you are driving over the bridge.

2 year old baby food

When your baby reaches 2 years, then it can be told that your child has achieved another milestone. With the fully grown teething your child has a transition from its liquid/semi solid food to solid food. Also children at this age are hyper active and fun making with the complete exhaustion of energy.

Till now milk and any baby porridges was a wonderful food supply which managed all the nutrients for your child. But 2 years is a age where milk alone cannot feed all the nutrients, many other forms of minerals, vitamins, proteins are necessary for the healthy growth.

My First Visit To Kashmir

Most of us have grown up listening, kashmir is heaven on Earth.’ But how many of us have actually visited this heaven? Most of you would agree that Kashmir in our minds has been synonymous to terrorism and this image takes over the charm of the Valley

My visit to Kashmir came with our family.If you are a professional and cannot spare more than 4-5 days for your trip, even then Kashmir can be a perfect destination for you. Here’s why:
Srinagar
Srinagar city serves as the central point with major attractions like Pahalgam, Gulmarg, Yousmarg etc.
In Srinagar, gardens like Shalimar, Nishat and Chashme Shahi take you to the royal landscapes of Mughal era. However nothing can beat Shikara ride in Dal Lake.

Baby Food To Carry While Travelling

It is fun travelling. Where we are going does not matter much to us. Not even what we could or couldn’t after we have reached our destination also does not matter much to us. 
After our baby was born it was mostly short trips for us. Short trips and day picnics are easy when you are taking your tiny baby along with you. With your baby, the entire baby essentials is to be carried along with you. Diapers, napkins, baby bib, baby clothes, couple of baby toys. Feeding bottles or sippy, and what not. It is tiresome, yet it is fun.
 I have never ever tried giving my baby restaurant food. Since I have always tried to maintain a healthy baby food diet, I am a little doubtful about anything apart from homemade baby food.
Here are the best and easy to carry baby food while travelling or on a outdoor picnic with your baby.
