This astronomical observation site was built in the early 18th century. It includes a set of some 20 main fixed instruments. This is the most significant, most comprehensive, and the best-preserved India's historic observatories. The observatory was a meeting point for different scholars linked to cosmology. It was also a symbol of royal authority, through its urban dimensions, its control of time, and its rational and astrological forecasting capacities.
