Ketheeswaram temple - Mannar

Ketheeswaram temple - Mannar

The Ketheeswaram temple, also known as Tirukketisivaram, is a Sri Lankan Hindu temple with a two and a half millennia long tradition as a place of Shiva worship, even claiming to be more ancient than the Sinhalese and Buddhist era of the island. Tirukketisvaran is situated in the Mannar district, but on the mainland opposite to Mannar island. The temple was rebuilt in 1903 after being destroyed by the Portuguese invaders and religious fanatics in 1575. King Ravana's wife Mandodari was from this town, and her father is believed to have built the temple. Another legend has it that the planetary God Ketu worshipped Shiva in this shrine. This is why it is called "Keteeswaram".
