The place is open for tourists for the entire year and other than its religious aspects, as on today, it also happens to be a popular picnic spot for families and friends.

The main pilgrim attraction points of Mayapur include the ISKCON Chandrodaya Temple, the Sri Chaitanya Math, the Yoga Peeth, and the Chand Kazis Samadhi.
