The Jantar Mantar in Jaipur is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most remarkable astronomical observatories ever built. Commissioned by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II in the early 18th century, this open-air observatory houses a collection of 19 giant instruments designed for measuring time, tracking celestial bodies, and predicting eclipses with incredible precision — all without the use of modern technology. The most impressive of these is the Samrat Yantra, the world’s largest stone sundial.

The Hawa Mahal, or “Palace of Winds,” is one of Jaipur’s most iconic landmarks, renowned for its unique five-story façade featuring 953 small windows or jharokhas, designed to allow royal women to observe street festivals and daily life without being seen, in line with the purdah system.
