Full Name Upanshu Singhal

I am an engineer by profession, living in Bangalore and belongs to Ghaziabad UP. I want to visit all the places which I heard of during my childhood and in movies. I have already visited many of them like Disneyland, Ooty, Las Vegas, Miami beaches, Niagara Falls, Mysore, Mumbai etc. Future plans is to visti Leh-Laddakh, Kenyan Safari, North-East India, Andaman Nicobar etc. etc. I am always excited to travel, whether it's vacation or business trip. My biggest desire is to picture the big cat "Tiger/Lion" and that is the reason for visiting jungles again and again.

Dhanushkodi – No Land only Sand

We reached Rameshwaram from Madurai about 3:00 PM, we planned to visit Rameshwaram temple in the morning, so we asked our taxi driver Kannan if there is any beach nearby, he nodded his head and said “Yeeessss” (I liked the way he used to say Yeeessss”), it is 13 kms from here and is called Dhanushkodi.
Well, we reached the beach in about 45 minutes, on the way, we also visited a temple where Lord Rama performed the “Raj Tilak” of Vibhishan. Kannan told us that this is the beach, it was very deserted. We found an Indian Navy post there, a tea stall and a snack shop. The Indian Ocean was beautiful, roaring and with high waves. We dared not go too deep inside and also asked the kids to stay off.
