Even though the temple is currently inactive, visitors should treat the structure with respect by not climbing on the ancient walls or leaving any litter behind.
Due to the age and abandoned state of the building, some upper levels or narrow staircases may be unstable; it is advised to stay within well-lit, ground-level areas.
As the site is not an active place of worship, there are no resident priests or formal ritual requirements, and visitors are discouraged from lighting candles or incense inside to protect the ancient architecture.
