Overview

Adiyogi Madurai - The Sacred Haven of Shiva

  1. Spiritual Enlightenment: Embark on a journey to Madurai, a city brimming with spirituality and ancient wisdom, where the towering presence of Adiyogi awaits. Begin your quest by paying homage to the majestic Meenakshi Amman Temple, an architectural masterpiece that pays homage to both goddess Meenakshi and Lord Shiva, reflecting the profound cultural legacy of Madurai.

  2. Adiyogi: The Embodiment of Yoga: Stand in awe before the iconic Adiyogi statue, a towering symbol of Lord Shiva in his yogic form, standing tall at 112 feet. This monumental tribute not only signifies divine presence but also celebrates the timeless science of yoga passed down through the ages.

  2. Dhanushkodi: Where Land Meets Sea: Venture to the ethereal landscape of Dhanushkodi, a ghost town nestled at the southern tip of Rameswaram. Amidst its abandoned streets lies a tale of resilience and serenity, offering a glimpse into the region's storied past.

  3. Ram Setu: A Bridge of Legends: Unravel the myth of Ram Setu, a natural marvel believed to be constructed by Lord Rama's army. Marvel at the panoramic vistas of the Gulf of Mannar and the Indian Ocean, where myth and reality converge in breathtaking harmony.

  • Premium trains like Rajdhani and Duranto offer higher confirmation probabilities but come with a higher fare.
  • To cancel train tickets mid-trip for opting flights, notify us at least 36 hours in advance for hassle-free cancellation, as last-minute cancellations may not always be feasible.
