Longest and shortest day in Nay Pyi Taw
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 13h 19m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 4 months, with 10h 56m.
Between them the day length swings by 2h 23m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:24 on 26 November; the latest is 18:48 on 5 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 05:25 on 6 June to 06:42 on 18 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Nay Pyi Taw different
It takes roughly 22 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Over a year the sunset point slides 50° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is WNW.
Across August the sunset moves 20 minutes earlier, averaging about 41 seconds a day.
Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 19 May and 25 July, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high.
Planning a sunset photo in Nay Pyi Taw
Arrive by 17:41. Golden hour opens at 17:56 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-northwest — the sun goes down at 281° 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 18:39 and runs to 18:48, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
