The unique feature of this temple is that only 4 priests can touch the idol. Two sets of priests carried out daily rituals of Pashupatinath. One being the bhatt and other being the Bhandhari. Bhandaris are the helper who are not qualified to perform pooja rituals or to touch the deity, whereas Bhatta are the one who perform daily rituals and can touch the lingam.
There are many festivals throughout the year and thousands of devotees attend these festivals. Shivaratri and Teej festivals are the most important festival. During these festivals, over 800,000 peoples visit here per day.
