World's top 51 skylines Part 3

The worlds 51 best/tallest skylines in the world 2008.
Rankings taken from http://homepages.ipact.nl/~egram/skyl...
*However* I tried to update the list myself so it's not identical.

Explaining the ranking system:

The value of each building in a city is calculated by x-90, x beeing the hight in metres.
Observation towers and such are only counted with half their hight (example: CN Tower).




I highly recomend downloading the high quality version http://www.gigasize.com/get.php?d=rwp...

I give so much props to CHINA! I am an American but that country kicks ass. They might not share the same beliefs and cultures that we Americans have but that country accomplished what the USA did in 200 some years they did in 30 lol. Great videos by the way!

The Toronto skyline is boring and dull. They have one tall tower, big deal! Better than Chicago or New York, get your head examined!

[Chetah01]

Bangkok should be the first. More high rise buildings are coming and Bangkok eye. and etc.

Most of this list I don't agree with. For one, most of China's skylines are too crowded, and have ugly color contrasts. I like Shanghai though...
