That magical time when the sun disappears, which is preparing to bid farewell to what lit the day before, leaving slowly the darkness to spread its charm. It’s that time of all shades of earth whirling around the sun king, thousands of colors to paint the set and go until the next morning. Gathered corners of the globe with the most beautiful sunsets are listed below.
Swiss Alps
The sun sets behind the snowcapped peaks of the Swiss Alps. For someone to see this view he should be a keen climber, but the sight you will see is worth it.
Cambodia
You will not see in complete silence the rays of the sun touching the tops of the temple Phnom Bakheng, since from 4 o clock in the afternoon crowds are gathered around to watch the reflections on the lake Tonlé Sap, the surface of which gets on fire.
Taj Mahal, India
Considered one of the greatest architectural wonders of the world and we understand that in the time of day when the sun’s rays are embracing the white marbles, the minarets, the murals, arches and lush gardens bathing them with a sweet orange shade.
Lofoten, Norway
This is not just a sunset, the Midnight Sun shines through the mysterious archipelago of Norway from late May to mid July, keeping the area in a charming verge day and night.
Santorini Island, Greece
Difficult to describe the ritual of sunset on this island. Something magical happens and it looks like the whole creation is renouncing colors, collated and swirling in the core of the sun. A magical power dips everything on the island in a deep red color.
Venice, Italy
It is beautiful at all times of the day. But the time of sunset hides another charm. While the sun disappears in the Mediterranean and the first lights are lit in the cities, the last rays run to hide in the channels. The city seems quieter and calmer than ever. Ideal spots to enjoy this mighty peace is a vaporetto on the Grand Canal from the Accademia Bridge or the top of the Church of St. George.
