Jantar Mantar: If You Are Into Astronomy...


If your are into astronomy, you will most likely have a great time in Jantar Mantar, an astronomical observatory.  This Unescco World heritage site observatory has fourteen major geometric devices for measuring time, tracking stars, ascertaining declinations of planets, etc.

However, if you visit expecting to see impressive structures, then you will be in for a disappointment.  The observatory structures are not awesome, and paint on its walls are faded and peeling off.
