Jantar Mantar in Jaipur has a total of 19 instruments, including the largest stone sundial in the world, which can give the local time accurately to within two seconds. Other instruments include the Samrat Yantra, Jai Prakash, Ram Yantra, and Narivalya Yantra, among others.
This video covers the explanation of only 2 instruments.
Please Note:- The explanation of the 2nd instrument (Jai Prakash Yantra) has other factors as well. This is just a brief explanation of the same.
There are a total of five Jantar Mantar observatories in India, all built during the 18th century by the Rajput king Sawai Jai Singh II. Apart from the Jantar Mantar in Jaipur, which is the most famous and well-preserved, there are Jantar Mantar observatories located in Delhi, Varanasi, Mathura, and Ujjain. All of these observatories were built to facilitate astronomical observations and measurements, and they are considered significant examples of scientific and architectural heritage in India.
