Years ago the great hero Rama led an expedition to the mystical land of Sri Lanka, to rescue his wife Sita from the clutches of the daemon king Ravana. On their journey they were faced by a great conundrum; of crossing a vast ocean, the Indian Ocean. Coveting for his wife Rama along with his army built a floating bridge across the ocean, the famous Ram Setu. We are all aware of the epic battle that took place between daemon king Ravana and Rama, resulting in Ravana’s defeat and rescuing of Sita.
