For information only, the Jantar Mantar is not the largest sundial in the world, although it is for sure one of the most spectacular and large, as well as ancient, with a great historical value, located within a superb compound of astronomical instruments. Nevertheless the largest sundial of the world is located in Zaragoza (Spain) and has been acknowledged as such by the Guinness World Record organization some years ago. It is larger than the Jaipur's one, although not as interesting in historical terms, but it also has an outstanding accuracy.
Saw this on an episode of 'Around the World in 80 Treasures'; a tour of some of the amazing places in India, I was shocked to hear it was built 1740s?! - Looks more like 20thC. Fascinating place 💜💜💜 (Some incredible & very beautiful places in India, but I'm not good with heat or crowds, so I like watching videos instead! :) x
Hope this video series will be interesting to you Hoysala Temples Documentary | Lesser Known Wonder: ua-cam.com/play/PLof4GlnxgaDjE5X6jo9hYyVnZZe7tTWGU.html
Thank you for uploading this informative video, taken on such a nice sunny day to enable the sundials to demonstrate their powers. I hope to visit some day, and appreciate them in person.
@@Indianglobetrotting Most likely this person was just having a bad day, and wanted to ruin someone else's day by denigrating this video, which was informative, if not especially well organized and without much connection between the narration and the images being recorded by the camera, except to name the structure, in most cases. Showing the iron "ring" suspended over the deep dishes was unusually helpful, but sundials have to be "adjusted" according to what is referred to as the "equation of time," which provides the necessary correction for the indicated time, depending on the day of the year, and this video did appear to try to introduce the idea, but not very well.

Thank You.
Please do visit Jantar Mantar with a guide, there are around 20 such instruments here. It's a must visit place in Jaipur
I wish I could afford to travel outside of the contiguous 48 United States.
You can💪

Any specific reason?
