Jantar Mantar is located in the modern city of New Delhi. "Jantar Mantar" literally means "instruments for measuring the harmony of the heavens". It consists of 13 architectural astronomy instruments. The site is one of five built by Maharaja Jai Singh II of Jaipur, from 1723 onwards. The primary purpose of the observatory was to compile astronomical tables, and to predict the times and movements of the sun, moon and planets. Some of these purposes nowadays would be classified as astronomy. I took this shot, among others, during one of my visits to Delhi five years ago. Camera" Canon SX130IS,. No adjustment. Image resized to FAr requirements. Enjoy!
