There are 14 major instruments in this observatory, which can be used to measure time, to predict eclipses, to know the speed and position of a star, to know the divisions of planets in the solar system.
 Looking at these instruments, it shows that the people of India had such a deep knowledge of the complex concepts of mathematics and astronomy that they could give these concepts a 'academic observatory' so that nobody could know them. Jaipur is a surprising medieval achievement associated with the old palace 'Chandramahal' - Jantar Mantar! To build and analyze accurately the astrological and astronomical phenomena through ancient astronomical instruments and complex mathematical structures, this unique building was established around the world in 1728 by King Savai Jai Singh (II) of the founder of Jaipur city, Jaipur.

Before creating this observatory, Sawai jaisingh sent his cultural envoy to many countries of the world and sought the manuscripts of ancient and important texts from astronomy there and he was also preserved in his posthumous (library) for his study. Was done.

Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II had built five observatories across the country on the basis of Hindu astronomy. These observatories were built in Jaipur, Delhi, Ujjain, Banaras and Mathura. In the construction of these observatories, he took the help of eminent astronomers of that time. First of all, Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh (II) had built the emperor in Ujjain, after which Delhi-based observatory (Jantar-Mantar) and its ten years later built Jantar-Mantar in Jaipur. Jaipur's highest observatory in all the five observatories of the country. The work was started in 1724 for the construction of this observatory and it was completed in 1734. This is very much in shape with the Jantar Mantras of the rest, it does not have many encounters in terms of crafts and instruments. The only five observatories built in Sawai Jai Singh are the only Jantar Mantar of Delhi and Jaipur left.

World Heritage list included

The main reasons behind this honor were counted for the reason that despite all these years passed, all the ancient instruments of this observatory are still in good condition; Through which the exact calculations of weather, local time, planetary constellations and ecliptic other astronomical phenomena can still be done today. Jantar-Mantar based in Jaipur received World Heritage status in 2010. Jantar Mantar, who had got his name in the world heritage, was the first in Rajasthan and India's 23rd cultural heritage. The credit for the construction of an unprecedented heritage of history goes to Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II.

282 years ago, this monument has been included in the World Heritage List, considering Indian culture of 'celestial' study of celestial events through the machines made of wood, lime, stone and metal. 
Based on the calculation of these instruments today, the local Panchang of Jaipur is published and every year Ashad Purnima is predicted by astronomers coming from the 'Pawan Dharan' process.
Among the instruments here - 'Samrat-yantra' (which is a huge solarium), 'Jayaprakash-yantra' and 'Rama-yantra' are the most famous, Of which 'Samrat-yantra' is the highest (about 90 feet from the earth), through which time can be told with sufficient accuracy. Jantar Mantar has become the first monument of Rajasthan state and 28th monument of the country included in the World Heritage List.

When the Indira Gandhi imposed emergency in the country in 1975, the fort of Jaigad fort was also searched for hidden treasures. The search, which began on 10 June 1976, ended in November 1976.
Losing the government also announced that there is no treasure in the fort. But people started raising doubts on this matter of the government. People seemed to lie to this The biggest reason for this is that when the army finished its operation, Delhi-Jaipur Highway was closed for the common people after one day.

On August 11, 1976, Bhutto wrote a letter to then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, in which Pakistan declared herself entitled to the wealth of Jaigad, writing that "the undivided India of such a wealth was not aware of the partition at the time of partition. According to the pre-partition agreement, the wealth of Jaigad becomes part of Pakistan. "
