Rameswaram

The recently-opened beach park at Mandapam, near here, has turned out to be a top tourist attraction of Rameswaram, thanks to its design and location. The park was established at a cost of Rs. 24.30 lakhs on 40 acres of land belonging to the Mandapam Special Village Panchayat. It was designed to meet the expectations of tourists, who were often disappointed over the inadequate tourist spots at Rameswaram.
The major attraction at the park is the children's swimming pool, just 50 metres off the sea. It has a spectacularly designed seahorse fountain, artificial coral reefs at the entrance and an artificially created starfish.
This part, colourfully decorated artificial hillocks and play equipment do not fail to draw attract tourists of all age groups. The calm and gentle waters of Gulf of Mannar scintillate those visiting the park. An evening walk along the beachfront is said to be one of the most satisfying experience by many.
