Gad Ganesh Mandir Jaipur is closely associated with Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, the founder of Jaipur. According to temple tradition, the shrine was established in the 18th century before the foundation of Jaipur city. The Maharaja is believed to have built the temple after performing the Ashwamedha Yagya and installed the sacred deity to seek blessings for the newly planned city. It is also believed that the deity was placed so the Maharaja could have darshan from Chandra Mahal of City Palace using binoculars.
