    A quick way to see the layers is to walk the steps in order. The first few tiers show the Pallava stonework, then the Chola era bronze idol, and the uppermost tier is the Vijayanagara mandapa. If you pause near the hill, the Marasa Sarovar Premiere Tirupati lobby usually has a concise timeline that lines up the eras with the steps. This lets you match the architecture you see with the history you’re curious about.
