Stargazing at Jantar Mantar

The Jantar Mantar is a collection of 19 architectural astronomical instruments built by the founder of Jaipur. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site and has the world's largest stone sundial.

While usually visited in the day, special evening tours or simply imagining the astronomers working here at night invokes a sense of scientific wonder. These instruments were incredibly precise in measuring time, predicting eclipses, and tracking stars.

It is a testament to the scientific temper of 18th-century India.
