One Yojana is approximately 8 miles,
Hanuman flew 8oo miles from Rameshwaram to reach Lanka.
But the bridge is only 18 Miles!
"Sri Lanka is an island nation-state in the Indian Ocean. It is located 880 kilometers (547 miles) north of the equator, off the southern tip of India, and has a maximum length of 432 kilometers (268 miles) and a maximum width of 224 kilometers (139 miles)."
The southern tip of Sri Lanka is 565 Miles(547+18) from Rameswaram
I have checked most of the places mentioned in the Ramayana and has even posted the route taken by Lord Rama in search of Sita who was abducted by
Ravana to Lanka.
I also checked the places associated with the Ramayana in Sri Lanka.
I have been able to find Ravana's city,his palace,the places where was moved from to another in captivity,where Sita took bath.
I have posted articles on these.
I now have a problem in Sundara Kanda of Ramayana...
Valmiki states clearly that Hanuman jumped from Mahenra Parvatha.
( I found an answer relating to the place from where Hanuman jumped for Lanka, here the answer was Hanuman did not jump but walked over!
This information is incorrect.
