The 12 Best Places to See the Sunset Around the World

"The massive rock formation known as Uluru undergoes a dramatic transformation each night when the sun sets over the Australian outback. The rock cuts a striking silhouette across the sky as the sun paints it orange, deep red, burnt umber, and ochre, before it turns black under the cover of night. Hike to the top of one of the surrounding dunes dunes for a stunning view of Uluru and the nearby domed rocks of Kata Tjuta." - Travel + Leisure Editors
