No matter how frantic a day of travel has been, a stunning sunset always commands us to stop, look and breathe.
The world's most beautiful sunsets aren't found only on beaches and islands: They illuminate city skylines around the world, some of which travelers are lucky enough to call their very own hometowns. Feel free to ogle these stellar urban sunsets from Instagram and Twitter, and prepare to soak in their glory on your next trip... or on your next night at home in the city.
