The places where admiring sumptuous sunsets when there is no shortage of travel and one of the best known in the world remains Santorini, in the cyclades. However, another destination a few hours away from France beats the Greek island.
Where to see a beautiful sunset? It’s the travel insurance company Allclear who looked into the issue last February. His study scrutinizes the most beautiful corners of the planet to enjoy this special moment that is sunset.
To establish this classification, the experts first chose 100 places already known to travelers for the beauty of their sunsets and then applied 5 criteria: the nebulosity (which can sublimate the colors when it remains light), wind speed, precipitation, humidity and … the number of hashtags associated instead on social networks.
On the second step of the podium, we find Waikiki, in Hawaii. Famous for its long beaches, palm trees and pink hues in the evening. The spot obtains an honorable score of 79.8 out of 100. In third place, another American site: the Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, noted 79.6. Again, the decor does the job. The sunlight sneaks between the cliffs, reveals the strata and changes the color of the rocks from one minute to another. A scene “Renowned with travelers for many reasons, but the sunsets offer a particularly exceptional spectacle,” According to the report.
Who picks up the gold medal of sunsets? This is CAPPADOCE, in Türkiye. The region obtains an overall note of 86.1 in 100, a score difficult to beat and “A golden hour that few other places on earth can match”specifies the team ofAllclear. What makes this place number one so special? First, its relief. As far as the eye can see, rock formations called fairy chimneys stand as a science fiction decor. Then the air is particularly dry and the precipitation rare. Result: the sunsets are clear, intense, the colors explode.
Another detail that counts: the on -site experience. Here, we are not content to look at the sun slowly drop to the horizon. You can climb a hot air balloon, float in the sky at dawn or twilight, and see the landscape change color under its feet. A vision that remains, which marks and is worth Instagram filters.
