Jaipur Instrument Complex




We then headed off to the Jantar Mantar Complex which is filled with scientific and mathematical instruments built in 1727. The Time instrument is still accurate to this day although since the calculation is made and then 11 minutes is added, we think modern mathematician have made some adjustments!
The funky looking concave instrument in the ground was to do with astrology and star signs and bringing babies to have their life lines read.
