Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:47 on 3 December; the latest is 19:58 on 30 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 05:45 on 12 June to 07:49 on 9 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Dazhou different

Clock noon and solar noon are 52 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 12:52 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.

Sunset here is followed by about 25 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Evening golden hour runs 48 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 31.2° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Between solstices the sunset walks 55° 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.

Across August the sunset moves 31 minutes earlier, averaging about 61 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Dazhou

Arrive by 18:33. Golden hour opens at 18:48 and the sun is down by 19:21, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 283° 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 19:36 and runs to 19:46, the end of civil twilight and 24m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
