Munneshwaram Hindu temple - Ayubowan !! Welcome to Sri Lanka. You will be met by representatives of Real Lanka at the airport and transferred to Dambulla/Habarana.En route visit Munneshwaram and Manaveri Temples & Sigiriya/Cobra Hooded Cave.

Munneshwaram Temple: Munneshwaram means the first temple for Lord Shiva (Munnu + Eswaram). Lord Rama after his victorious battle left for Ayodhya with Sita in one of Ravana’s vimanas. He felt he was being followed by Bramhaasthi dosham (A malevolent black shadow) as he had killed Ravana who was a Brahmin. When the vimana was passing over Munneshwaram he felt the vimana vibrating and in Munneshwaram realised the Brahmaasthi Dosham was not following him at this particular point. He stops the Vimana at this juncture and asks Lord Shiva for a remedy. Lord Shiva blessed Rama and advised installing and praying for four Lingams at Manaveri, Thiru Koneswaram and Rameshwaram in India, as the only remedy to get rid of the dosham

Friendly guide, ensured to take care of our requirements - It was good experience. Day 7 felt as not much use as only one place was covered. If given opportunity we would have traveled back home 6th night itself
