Sri RAMANATHASWAMY(Rameswaram-Tamil Nadu)

On the slope of the mountain of sahyadri and on the sacred bank of river Godavari resides Tryambakeswara whose mere vision destroys all sins.

Nasik, the main city barely 36 Kms from Tryambaka, is an industrial area. The present temple of Tryambakeswara was built by Balaji Peshwa in place of the ancient temple which existed there. The town of Tryambak is known for its learned Brahmins who are by traditions, students of the Vedas, and Vedic rituals.

The Jyotirlinga of Tryambakeswara has a small crack at the top and there is a constant flow of water from it. Devotees believe that Gautami Ganga performs constant abhishekam to the lord in this manner. The linga is covered with a golden mask with five faces carved on it.

Sri Sankara Matam at Rameswaram is located on Sannadhi Street, quite close to the Temple and just opposite the Agni Teertham.
