DescriptionKirtipur, 2009.jpg |
English: Five decades later, the inner core of Kirtipur still retains the typical Newari characteristics, but urbanisation has taken its toll at the periphery. The once abundant agricultural land has succombed to modern development. Pollution levels in the Kathmandu Valley have also increased significantly. March used to have clear blue skies with views of hills and snowclad mountains, but these days a permanant foggy cloud lingers in the valley.

Die einst riesige landwirtschaftlich genutze Fläche ist der modernen Entwicklung zum Opfer gefallen. Auch die Luftqualität im Kathmandutal hat sich in den letzten Jahren deutlich verschlechtert. Früher war der Himmel im März noch klar und blau; heutzutage hängt in diesem Monat leider eine Dunstglocke über der Stadt.

Les terres cultivées, jadis abondantes, ont succombé au développement moderne. Le degré de pollution dans la vallée de Katmandou a lui aussi considérablement augmenté. Au mois de mars, le ciel autrefois clair et bleu offrant une vue sur les collines et les pics enneigés a laissé place à un brouillard persistant sur la vallée.
