Rama Setu, also known as Adam's Bridge, is a chain of limestone shoals running between Pamban Island near Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu, India, and Mannar Island in Sri Lanka. Geographical evidence suggests that this natural bridge was a former land connection between India and Sri Lanka. The site holds significant historical and religious value, featured prominently in the Hindu epic Ramayana where it is believed that the bridge was built by Lord Rama's army of monkeys and bears to reach Lanka and rescue his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana. While the origins of Rama Setu remain a subject of both historical research and religious debates, the site today intrigues visitors with its stunning shallow waters and rich biodiversity. The significance of the bridge transcends centuries and continues to be a point of pilgrimage, environmental study, and tourism curiosity.
