- serf 6y agono, but it was still a sprawling metropolis, one assumes there was a lot of wood and coal burning going on. Here's a picture from Kathmandu in 1920. It appears to have poor visibility, but it's unclear from the picture whether or not that is pollution or weather. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kathmandu_Basantapur_Durbar_Square_in_1920.jpg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kathmandu_Basantapur_Du... here's another near the same period that shows similar levels of visibility: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/83/Kathmandu_and_tundikhel_ca_1920.jpg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/83/Kathmand...
