Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:56 on 1 December; the latest is 19:52 on 2 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 05:56 on 10 June to 07:44 on 12 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Zunyi different

Clock noon and solar noon are 39 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 12:39 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.

Sunset here is followed by about 23 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Photographers get 46 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.2× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 53° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

Across October the sunset moves 30 minutes earlier, averaging about 59 seconds a day.

At 867 m the horizon sits 1.02° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 4.6 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 9.3 minutes of extra daylight across the day.

Planning a sunset photo in Zunyi

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 — 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 18:43 and runs to 18:52, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
