Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:33 on 2 December; the latest is 19:32 on 1 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 05:32 on 11 June to 07:24 on 11 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Heshan different

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.

Evening golden hour runs 46 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 28.6° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Over a year the sunset point slides 54° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Sunset drifts 61 seconds earlier each day this month — 31 minutes from the first of October to the last.

Planning a sunset photo in Heshan

Arrive by 17:20. Golden hour opens at 17:35 and the sun is down by 18:06, 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.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 18:21 and runs to 18:30, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
