Great place and architecture of instruments of measurement, nice to see how they did it all at that time. To enjoy more get a guide, then you can understand more about the instruments and their story
Worth a stroll around some of the scientific instruments. If into science get a detailed book. Tour guides tend to state the obvious to anyone familiar with basic astronomy/planets.
Beautiful, historic, interesting, and calm. This is one of my favourite places in Jaipur. If I was a small child, I would have immediately climbed the structures and gotten in trouble with guards.
A guide is required for this place.Many good instruments created for measuring time, etc with the help of sun and shadows.Was impressed by the accuracy they had in showing the local Jaipur time.
This is a place to watch it and get some info on Time during olden times. Suggestion is opt for guide. They will explain you how they view time and host of other things
Абсерватория в Джайпуре, здесь находятся самые большие солнечные часы в мире. Абсерватория является объектом Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО. Интересное место.
