About the Event
Jantar Mantar was built by Maharaja Jai Singh II who was one of the kings of Jaipur in the 18th century. A scholar in physics, mathematics and astronomy, Jai Singh wanted to fix the problem of having to use inaccurate astronomical charts that were prevalent in the Mughal kingdom. That's how his observatory project was born. Jantar Mantar was one of the five astronomical observatories he built, with the others constructed in Jaipur, Mathura, Ujjain and Varanasi.
