Introduction
The areas J1 and J5 within the plaza undergo regular inspections to ensure they remain clean, free of debris and weeds, and to maintain the safety of both the site and its visitors. In area J1, inspections focus on monitoring the condition of the section, ensuring that no collapses or deterioration are present, as well as checking the integrity of the burlap layer designed to prevent rainwater from reaching the face of the section. In area J5, inspections include verifying cleanliness and assessing the condition of the sandbags used as a retaining wall supporting the temple’s fence. In both areas, the pathways are examined to ensure they are in good condition and safe for visitors.
Additionally, the condition of the informational panels in both areas is inspected; for further details, please refer to the presentation section.
