Longest and shortest day in Hohhot
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 15h 6m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 2 months, with 9h 14m.
Between them the day length swings by 5h 51m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:05 on 8 December; the latest is 20:08 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 05:01 on 15 June to 07:57 on 4 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 11m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Hohhot different
At 40.8°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 27 minutes to arrive: 3 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.
Evening golden hour runs 54 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 40.8° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 5h 51m here — among the widest of the 677 cities tracked in China.
Over a year the sunset point slides 63° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.
Across October the sunset moves 45 minutes earlier, averaging about 90 seconds a day.
Elevation matters at 1,051 m. The visible horizon drops 1.12°, pushing sunset 6 minutes later and sunrise the same amount earlier than a sea-level observer would see.
Planning a sunset photo in Hohhot
Arrive by 17:09. Golden hour opens at 17:24 and the sun is down by 18:01, 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.
