Iraivan Temple
The San Marga Iraivan Temple is a Chola-style Hindu temple dedicated to the Lord Shiva located on the Kauai island. The temple design was completed by V. Ganapati Sthapati in the late 1980s. Carving of the 4,000-plus blocks of granite commenced in 1990 at a worksite in Bangalore, India and then transported to temple site at Kauai. Beginning in 2001, the stones were shipped to Kauai and assembly begun by a team of silpi temple carvers under the direction of a master architect. The temple is being built and carved completely by hand. It is expected to be completed within the next few years. -from Wikipedia
