JaiVaan-World's biggest cannon

stereonation71 · Jan 15, 2009

JaiVaan is world's biggest cannon ever made, placed at heights of Jaigarh fort in Jaipur(Pink City), India. It was made by Raja Sawai Jai Singh for security of Jaipur, but because of well constusted fort no enemy dared to enter the city and cannon never used except test fire. 50 Kg of gunpowder was used to fire one shot.
Great place to visit-Jaipur.

There is one more unique fact about this cannon that it is made up of 8 metals like gold, copper etc. and it is one of the best form of alloys ever made by humans. It is placed right on the top of the fort under a tomb like structure and from that place you can enjoy the beautiful view of the city.I just wonder how advanced, strategically correct, scientifically advanced and intelligent those people were.
