Statue Circle — also known as Sawai Jai Singh Circle — is one of Jaipur’s most dignified, most beloved, and most photographed roundabouts, standing at the heart of the prestigious C-Scheme / Ashok Nagar zone with a majestic white marble statue of Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II — the visionary founder of Jaipur who established the planned Pink City in 1727 — at its glowing centre. Rated an exceptional 4.60 out of 5 based on 1,675 community reviews, Statue Circle is far more than a traffic junction. The life-size statue depicts the Maharaja holding an astrological diagram — a tribute to his love for astronomy and astrology, the same passion that led him to construct the five Jantar Mantar observatories across India, including Jaipur’s own UNESCO-listed Jantar Mantar. The circle is encircled by gardens, multi-coloured illuminated fountains that come alive in the evenings, and surrounded by Jaipur’s most refined commercial addresses — banks, government offices, luxury hotels, and boutique establishments. Tapri Junction Railway Station is just 380 metres away — the nearest rail access — while Jaipur Junction Railway Station is 4 kilometres and the Civil Lines Metro Station on the Pink Line is approximately 1.5 kilometres away. The circle is open 24 hours, 7 days a week, and entry is free for all visitors.
