My favorite type of travel is urban, city travel. Beaches and remote locales are nice, but nothing comes close to matching the exciting, organized chaos that is a large city. In a homage to these urban centers of travel brilliance, here are some of my favorite skylines from around the world.

Who am I? I am a typical Gen-Xer and recovering cubicle-dweller who has a passion for all things travel. My site brings a unique perspective that is hard to find online. I am not a backpacker, nor am I...
What a neat set of cities. Urban travel is my favorite type of travel. Cities each have their own feel and even smell. The Athens one is neat as it isn’t the normal perspective with the Acropolis in the background.
