The Abandoned Anchor ! - Dhanushkodi !!

This anchor found abandoned in Dhanushkodi near Rameswaram bears testimony to the devastating cyclone which destroyed the whole town in the year 1964 ! A whole train was also washed out into the sea at that time. Dhanushkodi village has been abandoned and all rebuilding has since been confined to Rameswaram town only !

 

( Somebody has tried to use this anchor by tying some ropes to it , it seems ! But alas, it's of no use...!!)
