Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:00 on 2 December; the latest is 19:03 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 04:59 on 11 June to 06:55 on 11 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Yiwu 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.

Photographers get 47 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.1× the 41 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

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

By the end of August the sun will be setting 29 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 57 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Yiwu

Arrive by 17:42. Golden hour opens at 17:57 and the sun is down by 18:29, 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 18:43 and runs to 18:53, the end of civil twilight and 24m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
