\documentclass[border=5mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw [very thick] (-4,0) -- (4,0);
\draw [very thick] (0,-4) -- (0,4);
\foreach [
  evaluate=\rad as \qb using int(\rad+4),
  evaluate=\rad as \qc using int(\rad+8),
  evaluate=\rad as \qd using int(\rad+12)
  ]
  \rad in {1,2,3,4} {
     \draw (0,0) circle[radius=\rad];
     \node at (45:\rad-0.5) {\rad};
     \node at (-45:\rad-0.5) {\qb};
     \node at (135:\rad-0.5) {\qd};
     \node at (-135:\rad-0.5) {\qc};
   }
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Thanks for this straight forward answer, another question: is it possible to make two of this as two sub figure(i.e two of this set of circles in a row with captions)? — dariush, Dec 02 '16 at 18:18
@dariush Try avoiding asking new questions in comments like that. But yes, of course it's possible, just make two subfigures as you would do normally (e.g. with the subcaption package and the subfigure environment, see http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/37581/latex-figures-side-by-side/37597#37597 for example), and place one tikzpicture in each subfigure. — Torbjørn T., Dec 02 '16 at 18:22

PSTricks was designed to solve your problem.

\documentclass[pstricks,preview,margin=5mm]{standalone}

\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(-4,-4)(4,4)
    \psline(-4,0)(4,0)\psline(0,-4)(0,4)
    \foreach \i in {0,1,2,3}{%
        \pscircle{!\i\space 1 add}
        \foreach \j in {0,1,2,3}{\rput(!\i\space .5 add \j\space -90 mul 45 add PtoC){\the\numexpr4*\j+\i+1\relax}}
    }
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}
