Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, built in 1724 by Maharaja Jai Singh II, is an impressive astronomical observatory that showcases ancient Indian scientific ingenuity. It is home to 13 unique instruments, designed to measure time, track celestial bodies, and observe the movement of stars and planets. Among the most notable is the Samrat Yantra, a massive sundial that accurately tracks time even today, demonstrating the advanced understanding of astronomy during the Mughal era.
This UNESCO-listed monument is not only an important historical site but also a testament to the sophistication of ancient Indian astronomy. The instruments at Jantar Mantar were used to make precise calculations for determining the positions of celestial bodies, eclipses, and other astronomical events. A visit here offers a rare opportunity to experience a fusion of science, history, and architecture, allowing visitors to marvel at the ingenuity of a bygone era while reflecting on our understanding of the cosmos.
