Tallest No More: Dharahara

As more and more commercial buildings get constructed in Kathmandu the heritage sites are in danger of being blocked and sabotaged. Here is a picture of the new  rumored to be ‘telecom’ building in Sundhara which has blocked the view of Dharahara; once the tallest structure in Nepal (9 storeys). The Dharahara was built by the PM Bhimsen Thapa to safeguard the city. I think the new building is Civil Apartments, constructed by the Civil Trading Groups but we’ll find out sooner or later.
