Iraivan's Entry Steps Take Shape!

At Iraivan Temple the siplis have nearly completed the installation of the first four stone steps that comprise the temple's main entrance. These slabs are fit over the existing stair-shaped foundation. They are then carved along the joints to make them relatively seamless.

Image

As you can see, the steps are nearly halfway to completion

Image

On our way out to Iraivan Temple a little bird says hello

Image

He has a good view from here

Image

We find the silpis working on the upper steps

Image

These steps had a little more finish work do be done than the lower steps did

Image

So they will take a little longer than the steps that are in so far

Image

But they are progressing quickly

Image

Image

Image

These steps will be here to welcome you next time you visit Iraivan Temple

Image

Here you can see the foundation for the upper steps

Image

ll look like this as well'
