Is Rama Setu Real? Is it man made? How old is it? Why it is called Adam's Bridge? Are these some of your questions to which you were searching Answers for? Not satisfied with the Answers? Then here are the best answers you will be satisfied with.All these answers are the well researched from various sources.
So are you ready?
WHY WAS THE BRIDGE CONSTRUCTED??
The important Epic of India - The Ramayana has said to be evolved in the Tetra Yuga. Though there are many proofs to explain its evolution , there are still thousands of people out there who don't actually believe it. One such is the "Rama Setu" Bridge that has been build by the vanara's army(Monkey's troop) to help Rama to reach Sri Lanka to rescue his wife Sita connecting India's Dhanushkodi to the Talaimannar land of Sri Lanka

Rama was the eldest son of king Dasaratha of Ayodhya. Rama was married to Sita(Janaki)- the daughter of king Janaka. Rama was asked to leave Ayodhya by his mother Kaikeyi(The third wive of Dasaratha). Obeeaing the words of his mother Kaikeyi Rama along with Sita and Lashmana left to forest for 14 long years. During the stay in the forest , Sita was kidnapped by the Raskasha King Ravana. With the help of the Hanuman ,Rama came to know about where was Sita and where she was kidnapped to.
In order to rescue Sita , Rama has to cross the mighty Indian ocean. To help Rama the ape army with the instructions of Nala started to build the bridge, which is now known as the Rama Setu.
Thus saying the reason behind why it was build, lets now move on to how the Vanara's build such an stable Bridge that is staying even now? Was it Truly build by them? OR Is it a Natural occurrence?
HOW DID THE SCIENTIST CONFIRM THAT IT WAS BUILD BY MAN??
The NASA Scientist have finally said that "The Rama Setu Bridge" is man made and was not a Natural process.
Thus with the instruction given by Nala, the Vanara started the Rama Setu Bridge Construction.
WHAT MATERIALS WERE USED TO CONSTRUCT THE BRIDGE??
Did the Vanara use cement, concert to construct the bridge??? NOOOOO!! So what materials were used??
The Vanara's filled the Ocean with different Types of Tree woods like Sala and Asvakarna,Dhava and Bamboo,Kutaja, Arjuna,Palmya,Tilaka,Tinisa,Bilva,Saptaparna,Karnika ,Mango and Asoka.
These made the basement for the bridge and were used to provide cushion affect to the soil.
With the Passage of time ,the sands have been accumulated over the basement layer and the woods have solidified But it is for sure that if the sands were carefully removed, the underground structure that were laid could be seen(not the woods)
Yet another Work that surprised the Scientist was that the Bridge was constructed in a Linear Alignment.
When the Scientist checked the length and the width of the bridge with the help of satellite recording it was found that the length was 35km from the Dhanushkodi land (India) to that of the Talaimannar land (Sri Lanka) and the width was 3.5km which is again of the Ratio 10:1.Below is the picture for your reference.
WHY RAMA SETU IS CALLED AS ADAM'S BRIDGE??
There are various names by which Rama Setu has been called and one among then is the Adam's Bridge. I too wonder how this bridge can be called so... Are too wondering like me. here is the answer I found..
It is said that an Religious Islamic man walked over this Bridge to reach Sri Lanka to do his Penense. Since he was the early Islamic man , he was called Adam by the Sri Lankan Muslims.
Later when the European invaded India, they could easily correlate with this word Adam and started referring to this Bridge as Adam's Bridge.
Conclusion:
Thus we have completely explained why Rama Setu is called as Adam;s Bridge along with all scientist proofs explaining that Rama Setu was man made. Hope the entire post was useful to you all. If you still got any questions and are not still convinced with the answers do comment us below.

The NASA Scientist have finally said that "The Rama Setu Bridge" is man made and was not a Natural process.
Here is a well described explanation of how the Rama Setu Bridge was constructed with all Scientific proof : The Process/Working of Bridge was not done in a single day or by any miracle, It was completely constructed with the instruction of the "Nala"- The chief Civil Engineer of the Rama Sethu Bridge. It was also Known as Nala Setu.
Who is "Nala"
Nala was a descendant of Viswakarma dynasty(Anyone born in this dynasty are said to best in construction work). Thus he took the responsibility of building the bridge and spoke the following:
I am a Biological Descendant of Viswakarma... I am capable of constructing a bridge across the ocean. Hence,let the foremost of Vanara built the bridge now itselfAlso Nala is said to the best Constuctor who had followed the exact procedure to construct a bridge
Thus with the instruction given by Nala, the Vanara started the Rama Setu Bridge Construction.

Later Huge (Elephant-sized) Rocks,mountains were transported by mechanical Contrivances.

The waters here still carry the blessing of Lord Rama's lotus feet.Because this is where the monkey army crossed over to Lanka to rescue Sita.
Yet another Work that surprised the Scientist was that the Bridge was constructed in a Linear Alignment.
The Length and Width Of the Bridge:
The epic Ramayana has recorded that the time taken for the entire army to construct the bridge was 20 days. As said early it was a well planned and was not just a random throwing of stones that took place. The length and width of the bridge that was constructed was in the ratio of 10:1 (as per the book)
(Length : 100 Yojana and Width: 10 Yojana)When the Scientist checked the length and the width of the bridge with the help of satellite recording it was found that the length was 35km from the Dhanushkodi land (India) to that of the Talaimannar land (Sri Lanka) and the width was 3.5km which is again of the Ratio 10:1.Below is the picture for your reference.
