Pamban Bridge: This 100-year old Indian Railways sea bridge is breathtaking

Pamban bridge: Imagine a railway bridge over the sea which 'opens up' to allow ferry and boat movement! And, what makes this bridge even more wonderful is the fact that it was built 100 years ago! Till 1988, the Pamban bridge was the only surface transport that connected Tamil Nadu's island of Rameswaram to the mainland. Said to be an engineering marvel, the Pamban bridge was once India's longest sea bridge, till the Bandra-Worli sea link came up in 2009. We take a look at some breathtaking images of the Pamban bridge and awe-inspiring facts
