New York, Shanghai, Chicago, Hong Kong, and Dubai are the 5 largest global skylines. I haven't seen a thread like this, so I decided to create one. Which is your favorite? (Pics Please)

You've missed quite a few large "global" skylines. Seoul, Tokyo, Sao Paulo, Toronto, Manila, Taipei + many, many more. Even if you're only concerned with skylines that feature a large number of super-tall buildings - those alone do not make up an entire skyline, and currently - New York would not be among them if that was the specific criteria. I'm not sure how you came up with these specific five as "the five largest global skylines" other than opinion.
