Once a thriving coastal town, it was devastated by the catastrophic cyclone of 1964 and is now famously known as the “Ghost Town of India.” Despite its abandoned appearance, the town remains an important pilgrimage destination deeply connected with the epic Ramayana. According to Hindu mythology, this is the sacred place where Lord Rama, after rescuing Goddess Sita from Lanka, instructed Lord Hanuman and the Vanara Sena to dismantle a portion of Ram Setu (Adam’s Bridge) using the tip of His divine bow, giving the place its name “Dhanushkodi,” meaning “End of the Bow.” Visit the Ram Setu View Point, where devotees can witness the legendary stretch believed to have connected India and Sri Lanka.

Adjacent to the memorial stands the majestic 133-foot Thiruvalluvar Statue, dedicated to the great Tamil poet and philosopher Saint Thiruvalluvar, whose timeless work, the Thirukkural, continues to inspire people around the world with its teachings on virtue, wealth, and love. Continue your visit to the Gandhi Memorial Mandapam, built at the site where the ashes of Mahatma Gandhi were kept for public homage before immersion. The memorial has been uniquely designed so that on 2nd October every year, the sun’s rays fall directly on the exact place where his ashes were placed.
