The British renamed it as Adam’s peak. The mountain peak has foot prints that measure up to 5ft 7in in height and 2ft 6in in width. Many devotees believe that these are the footprints of Lord Shiva.

Several local people believe that Ravana was instilled and brought to the mountain peak in Sri Lanka asking for the blessings of Lord Shiva when the Lord refused to go with him to Lanka. Thousands of pilgrims visit this place where they can found the holy footprints of Lord Shiva, a visible historical evidence for the existence of Lord.

Devotees also consider that the Swetharanyeswarar temple in Tamil Nadu has the foot print of Lord Shiva, the Rudra Padam.
