Actually, the sun doesn't set at all. We are spinning around and it appears to move from east to west across the sky. However, the sun itself does not move.
The apparent motion of the sun (like so many other things in life) is just an illusion.

the sun sets no where it just looks like that because
earth is rotating and every part of the earth remains under sun only for 12 hrs hence at the starting of 1st hr it seems to be rising from east and at the end of 12th hr it seems to be setting in the west

The sun doesn't set of course. The earth spins around on its axis so that we are facing away from the sun at night. But to us sitting on the earth, it appears as though the sun sets since we can't see the earth rotating.

In the West. It rises to the East. Blessings on you, as the sun rises and sets, wherever you are!!! And, all the hours between.

It disappears into the ocean every night and if you listen closely you can hear the hiss as it is extinguished.
Seriously........in the west.
