I'm in Taiwan right now for 2 months at a university, and I've been taking a few pictures around sunset. Thought I'd share some of the photos. All the photos were taken in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, which is Taiwan's second largest city. It's a coastal city with one of the biggest ports in the world. The population of about 1.5 million. Despite the population, it retains a much more laid back atmosphere. Unlike the skyscraper wonderland that is Taipei, Kaohsiung hearkens back to a more traditional Taiwan. It's also a beautiful place with lush mountains overlooking the city and the sea.

Another perspective, when the sunset was at it fullest. View overlooks the harbor.

Took this shot by the beach at sunset. Sunsets are spectacular in Kaohsiung. Maybe it's the tropical weather or something, but they are unreal.

A picture of the harbor in the town.

Climbed up a mountain to capture a spectacular sunset.

Taken from a slightly different perspective, when the sky was really on fire. one of the best sunset's I've seen.
