Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:22 on 8 December; the latest is 20:25 on 28 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 05:18 on 15 June to 08:14 on 4 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 11m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Bayan Nur different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:37, a full 38 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

Light lingers for 27 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 3 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 40.7°N buys you.

Photographers get 54 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.4× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

Summer and winter days differ by 5h 50m here, more seasonal variation than almost anywhere else in China we track.

Between solstices the sunset walks 63° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 45 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 90 seconds a day.

Standing 1,050 m up buys you 6 extra minutes of evening sun: the higher you are, the further over the curve of the Earth you can see, by 1.12° here.

Planning a sunset photo in Bayan Nur

Arrive by 17:26. Golden hour opens at 17:41 and the sun is down by 18:18, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 262° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 18:35 and runs to 18:46, the end of civil twilight and 27m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
