Jantar-Mantar Jaipur: An observatory of Old Era!

Janatar Mantar is an intriguing monument, unique in concept and built in an era when there were no machines to carryout accurate measurements or marking. There are fourteen unique astronomy-related-geometric devices (yantras) in the premises called Jantar Mantar. There are Sun-Dials Moon-Dials etc. etc. which will bewitch you, not easy to understand though. You better engage a guide if you are a serious tourist.
