Interesting!
I was wondering just yesterday about the converse: what if you're in a world that, like Narnia, is a plane rather than a sphere?
The point of a palpably different horizon also comes up in Niven's
Ringworld and at least the first sequel (I haven't read any further than that ...); the Ringworld is so large that it includes life-size replicas of every inhabited planet of "Known Space," but instead of curving down as on a sphere, the horizon curves
up.
And there's also a less-well-known science fiction novel I've read (which I hesitate somewhat to recommend due to "language" and "content" issues, but
here's a link to it on Goodreads) in which the main "other world" is significantly larger than Earth, but what really messes with the character's "horizon sense" is that it's a binary planet, with a "moon" that covers (if I remember correctly) up to about a quarter of the sky.
