Mahashivratri is on the 8th of March. On the day of Mahashivratri, Lord Bholenath was married to Mother Parvati. Devotees celebrate their wedding anniversary with great pomp and worship the Shiva family with wishes for a happy family. On this occasion, devotees visit Shiva temples, Jyotirlingas and Shivalayas. There are 12 Jyotirlingas of Mahadev in the country. It is believed that his darshan and worship are like worshiping Lord Bholenath. Shiva devotees want to visit the Jyotirlingas of Bholenath.
If you are a resident of Uttar Pradesh then you can visit the most famous and ancient Kashi Vishwanath Temple. According to religious beliefs, Kashi is Bholenath's most favorite place on earth. On the occasion of Mahashivratri, people from far and wide reach Varanasi and visit Kashi Vishwanath Jyotirlinga. However, there is a lot of crowd on this occasion. In such a situation, if you want to go to Banaras to visit Kashi Vishwanath on Mahashivratri, then keep some things in mind.
This year, more than 10 lakh devotees are likely to come for darshan and worship at Baba Vishwanath Dham during Mahashivratri. In such a situation, a large crowd may be seen for darshan.

If you are going for darshan at Kashi Vishwanath Temple, then do not take any items with you to the temple, like a knife, pen, electronic remote, smartwatch, pen drive, paan, gutkha, cigarette, mobile, or any sharp object.
Mobile phones are not allowed in the temple, hence travelers should leave their mobile phones at the hotel, lodge, or the place where they are staying. Due to the pressure of a large crowd, there will be a direct impact on the locker system.
This year, there will be no VIP ticket facility for devotees on the occasion of Mahashivratri. In such a situation, even common devotees will not have to face problems due to VIP darshan.
