It might be called the golden hour everywhere, but the amount of “gold” can vary pretty widely. This photo was taken in Canada, while the next one was taken in Jordan. I have to say I prefer the Jordan sunsets, but perhaps that is just because they somehow seem more exotic to me.
If It Was Today... 
After looking at the pics you posted, even i would pick Jordan’s photo as it looks best with the orange shade getting darker to the bottom. Other picture also could have looked better had it been taken not from the cluster of trees. I mean, this is just my thought.
