Pamban bridge, Raneshwaram, Tamilnadu, India: Pamban Bridge is a railway bridge that connects the town of Mandapam in mainland India with Rameswaram on Pamban Island. Opened on 24 February 1914, it was India's first sea bridge, and was the longest sea bridge in India until the opening of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in 2010. The rail bridge is, for the most part, a conventional bridge resting on concrete piers but has a double-leaf bascule section midway, which can be raised to let ships and barges pass through.

Adam's Bridge, also known as Rama's Bridge, is a chain of natural limestone shoals between Pamban Island, off the southeastern coast of India, and Mannar Island, off the northwestern coast of Sri Lanka. The entire bridge is 30 miles (48 km) long and is rarely submerged by more than three feet (a meter) of water. Geological evidence suggests that the bridge is a former land connection between India and Sri Lanka.

ok so..

what is the irl thing most fascinating to you? something that you totally hyperfixate on?

do you listen to podcasts/ audiobooks? any favorites? :D

is there someplace in TN that you feel is a must visit?

what kind of house would you like to live in? boathouse? skoolie? cottagecore? in the mountains? beaches? (u can throw practicality out the window :))

a fictional character with the best character design (read: with the most gender✨) in your opinion?

aaah hullooo 💜 these are all so interesting! i literally just woke up asgshdjfgdj so this might not be coherent but let's go

looking out my window, the first thing i can think about is CROWS. they're literally so damn cool. so there is this tree right outside my window and like three generations of crows have lived there. not sure if they were all the same family but i have seen 3 families of crows grow up and leave their nests. and i feel so fucking lucky to have been able to witness that. another fascinating thing about crows is how they react to something they can't see cawing. like living in the city literally surrounded by crows all the time, i like to think that I've got a good imitation of the crows' caw and it's literally just so hilarious to watch them look so perplexed when they try to figure out who is cawing. i feel kinda cruel when i do it but then again i just wanna study crows man they are literally so advanced and cool

not really. I've tried listening to podcasts but never got across to making it a habit. (weird coincidence, i just had a dream where one of my teachers was talking about podcasts 😭) and i don't think audiobooks are my thing bc sometimes i give characters my own voice and i just enjoy a good sit down session and read and forget about the world (would totally love some podcast recs if i wanna drop ur favourites!)

so in TN i have visited madurai, Trichy, tirunelveli, ooty, Kumbakonam, kancheepuram etc etc. the one place i haven't gone to that i REALLY wanna visit in kanyakumari. i wanna see the thiruvalluvar statue and just have the feeling of last location before the sea. but the one place i think everyone must visit is probably rameshwaram and dhanushkodi. i visited rameshwaram during my winter holidays i think, I'm like pretty sure my family did a mini roadtrip and visited madurai and nelveli at the same time. so dhanushkodi- absolutely loved going there. the view was impeccable and the beaches were so cool. and the history behind it!! oudhdfhsjfj. it is literally an abandoned town. and the ride across the pamban bridge was so cool the views and the vibes were just ✨

when we were younger, my brother, sister (technically cousin but i literally grew up with her and my other cousins so who gives a fuck) and i planned to like live in this huge ass mansion. just the three of us, and we even wrote floor plans. i had an indoor swimming pool and an indoor garden in the topmost floor. and then lounges and guest rooms in the next bc we were gonna be rich and famous. living room and dining and kitchen in the 1st floor, the living room was huge and had like a walkthru path and all. the were grand stair in the front of the house which wud lead to the first floor. and then the personal bedrooms were in the ground floor extra ones in case one of us wanted to get married asgdjfkgh. now coming to the outisde, one big parking lot for our cars and the guests' cars, then another smaller one for the two wheelers. and here's my most favorite one- A FACY ASS FOUNTAIN SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DRIVEWAY . why were we dreaming to be such rich bitches I'll never know 😭😭

but like actually thinking about it, I'd like to live in a cottagecore house or beach house. they both seem like cool places to live and get inspiration for writing. when i say beach house i mean those Greek/ Italian ones which look literally so slay. so yeah probably those. the mountains seem cool too but growing up in this heat, my body ain't built for those temperatures ashdhfjgk

the most gender character design is probably alex fierro even tho i haven't read those books yet, I've definitely seen their character designs and yes please. c!quackity (dsmp) fanart and character designs are also really gender and insanely cool. and then if i think about it we have airk (willow 2022) oooh and theb one of my ocs, Ash- they're a trans man with a sick ass haircut and cool piercings!

The Best Time to Visit Rameshwaram: Weather and Festivals

Rameshwaram, located on Pamban Island in Tamil Nadu, is a popular pilgrimage destination famous for its sacred temples, stunning beaches, and rich cultural heritage. If you are planning a trip to Rameshwaram, knowing the best time to visit can enhance your experience significantly. This blog will guide you through the ideal weather conditions and local festivals that make Rameshwaram a must-visit destination. Whether you are considering a Rameshwaram tour package from Delhi or looking for a Delhi to Rameshwaram package, this information will be beneficial.

Weather in Rameshwaram

The weather in Rameshwaram can be categorized into three main seasons: summer, monsoon, and winter.

1. Summer (March to June)

Summer in Rameshwaram can be quite hot, with temperatures often soaring above 35°C (95°F). March is relatively pleasant, making it a good month to start your journey. However, as the summer progresses, the heat becomes more intense, making outdoor activities less enjoyable. If you choose a Rameshwaram tour package during this season, be prepared for the heat. It is essential to stay hydrated and plan activities for the cooler parts of the day, such as early mornings or late evenings.

2. Monsoon (July to September)

The monsoon season brings heavy rainfall to Rameshwaram. While the landscape becomes lush and vibrant, the rains can disrupt travel plans. The average rainfall during this season is substantial, and it is best to avoid visiting during peak monsoon months. If you do travel during this time, ensure your Delhi to Rameshwaram package includes provisions for unexpected weather changes.

3. Winter (October to February)

Winter is undoubtedly the best time to visit Rameshwaram. The weather during these months is pleasant and cool, with average temperatures ranging from 15°C (59°F) to 30°C (86°F). This is the ideal season for sightseeing, temple visits, and enjoying the beautiful beaches. If you are considering Tirupati tour packages along with your visit to Rameshwaram, winter is an excellent time to explore both destinations comfortably.

Festivals in Rameshwaram

Rameshwaram is rich in cultural and religious significance, and several festivals are celebrated with great enthusiasm. Visiting during these festivals can provide a unique and immersive experience.

1. Maha Shivaratri

One of the most important festivals in Rameshwaram is Maha Shivaratri, celebrated in February or March. Devotees from all over India flock to the Ramanathaswamy Temple to offer prayers and participate in night-long vigils. The atmosphere is vibrant with religious fervor, making it a special time to experience the spiritual essence of Rameshwaram.

2. Dussehra

Dussehra, usually celebrated in September or October, is another significant festival in Rameshwaram. The festival commemorates the victory of good over evil and is marked by various cultural events and processions. Visiting during this time allows travelers to witness the local customs and festivities.

3. Navaratri

Navaratri is celebrated for nine nights and usually falls in September or October. The festival involves worshipping the nine forms of Goddess Durga, with vibrant decorations and cultural performances taking place throughout the town. It’s a great time to immerse yourself in the local culture and traditions.

4. Pongal

Pongal is a harvest festival celebrated in January and is one of the most important festivals in Tamil Nadu. The celebrations involve cooking a special dish called Pongal and offering it to the Sun God. Visitors during this time can enjoy local delicacies and witness traditional celebrations.

Planning Your Visit

To make the most of your trip to Rameshwaram, consider booking a Rameshwaram tour package that aligns with your travel preferences and the best seasons. Many packages from Delhi include visits to nearby attractions, making it easier to explore the region. Ensure that your chosen package accommodates your travel dates to coincide with local festivals for a more enriching experience.

Whether you are traveling for pilgrimage or leisure, understanding the best time to visit Rameshwaram can significantly enhance your journey. With pleasant weather, vibrant festivals, and well-planned travel packages, your trip to Rameshwaram will surely be memorable.

So, get ready to explore the divine beauty of Rameshwaram, and don’t forget to check out the various Rameshwaram tour packages available to suit your needs. Safe travels!
