The site is accessible by bus from Dhaka to Brahmanbaria, followed by local transport to reach the village. The dry season offers better travel conditions, as rural roads become more navigable during these months.
The complex functions as a year-round prayer center where daily religious activities continue beyond the festival season. Visitors can observe rituals and devotional practices happening throughout the year, not just during major celebrations.
