City Skylines Around The World
|
Skylines need not be formed by skyscrapers or tall buildings alone; neither is the term confined to larger cities. Skylines can also be dominated by other tall structures such as smoke stacks or other industrial chimneys, smelters, cranes, cooling towers, radio and TV masts, refineries, power lines, wind turbines, etc. In many cases a skyline dominated by these structures is considered an eyesore or as 'horizon pollution' rather than a symbol of wealth and influence.
Hong Kong is widely ranked by skyscraper enthusiasts as having the best skyline in the world.
