Longest and shortest day in Hanzhong
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 14h 20m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 9h 57m.
Between them the day length swings by 4h 22m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:44 on 4 December; the latest is 20:04 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 05:42 on 12 June to 07:55 on 8 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Hanzhong different
On standard time the sun peaks at 12:38, 39 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.
It takes roughly 25 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Evening golden hour runs 48 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 33.1° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 57° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Across October the sunset moves 35 minutes earlier, averaging about 71 seconds a day.
At 517 m the horizon sits 0.79° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 3.8 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 7.6 minutes of extra daylight across the day.
Planning a sunset photo in Hanzhong
Arrive by 17:37. Golden hour opens at 17:52 and the sun is down by 18:25, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 263° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
