The Five Faced Hanuman Temple is a renowned spiritual site situated in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, India. This temple is significantly famed because it is believed to house the floating stone used to construct the bridge, Ram Setu, between India and Lanka in the epic Ramayana. The temple gets its name from the idol of Lord Hanuman, which has five faces, symbolizing his various forms such as Hanuman, Adivaraha, Narasimha, Hayagriva, and Garuda. The temple is an essential stop for pilgrims visiting Rameswaram, which is one of the four sacred Char Dham Hindu pilgrimage sites. The walls of the temple are adorned with intricate carvings that depict scenes from the Ramayana, filling the atmosphere with deep religious sentiments. The idol of Lord Hanuman is smeared with sindoor, and the temple is a testament to the unwavering faith and devotion observed by the devotees.
