The Stone Instruments That Still Tell Time The Jantar Mantar in Jaipur, India, is an astronomical observatory completed in 1734 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, comprising 19 large masonry instruments for measuring time, predicting eclipses, and tracking celestial positions. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it includes the Samrat Yantra — the world's largest stone sundial, accurate to about two seconds.
