Encompassing the Alankara Mandapa stand 10 elephant statues connoting 8 headings with earth and space down. The father of Sri. Rama, the saint of Ramayana was called Dasaratha as he could charioteer in ten headings. To help the vacationers to love the blessed feet of Thiruvalluvar 140 steps are built inside the Mandapa.
