Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:04 on 1 December; the latest is 19:57 on 2 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 06:03 on 10 June to 07:50 on 12 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Bijie different

Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 13:00, a full 61 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

Sunset here is followed by about 24 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

The shallow approach angle at 27.3° stretches this evening's golden hour to 46 minutes, against about 41 for a city on the equator today.

Between solstices the sunset walks 53° 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 WNW.

By the end of August the sun will be setting 27 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 54 seconds a day.

At 1,471 m the horizon sits 1.33° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 6.1 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 12.2 minutes of extra daylight across the day.

Planning a sunset photo in Bijie

Arrive by 18:39. Golden hour opens at 18:54 and the sun is down by 19:26, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 282° 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 19:40 and runs to 19:50, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
