Man Mahal, overlooking the Ganga at Man Mandir Ghat in Varanasi, was built around 1600 CE by Raja Man Singh of Amber, a general of the Mughal emperor Akbar. In around 1737, the Jaipur king and astronomer Sawai Jai Singh II added a masonry astronomical observatory to the palace, one of five such observatories he constructed at Jaipur, Delhi, Mathura, Ujjain and Varanasi. The observatory houses instruments including the Samrat Yantra, Digamsa Yantra, Nadivalaya Yantra, Chakra Yantra and Dakshinottara Bhitti Yantra, used for calculating time and studying the movement of celestial bodies. The instruments deteriorated through the mid-19th century and were restored in 1912 under the direction of Maharaja Sawai Madho Singh of Jaipur. The site is protected under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958, and is managed by the Archaeological Survey of India.
