A Shivalingam (a symbolic phallus representation of the Lord) is established inside the sanctum. Even though a major portion of the temple is in wreckings, despite that devotees throng this temple in huge numbers. It is believed that Mamal Shiva Temple is the oldest existing temple in Kashmir. The enarest railhead is Jammu Tawi railway station; Pahalgam is well connected by road to Srinagar.
