Dhanushkodi
............................................................. A lost city washed out by a 1964 cyclone...
Dhanushkodi ( means bow's end in Tamil referring to its position in the island), once a flourishing tourist and pilgrimage centre was washed away by a cyclonic flood in 1964 drowning an entire train with its passangers. Today a small community of fisherman lives here among the ruins of the ancient port city which connected it with TalaiMannar in Sri Lanka.
