    Astronomical and Cosmic Calculation Center of 17th Century
    Jantar Mantar that can better be understand as the place for performing astronomical and cosmic calculation with the light of the sun and the rotation of the Earth around the Sun. What is today's one of the world heritage site was built by Sawai Jai Singh in 1728 who had the insyreat and fascination towards astronomical science. He had built 5 Jantar Mantars across the western part of the country (Jaipur, Mathura, Ujjain and Benaras) though currently operational only in Jaipur. Definitely recommend and should be part of your city tour that can be very informative to the children. Refer to the review photos for the ticket prices break up and operating hours.
