Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:04 on 5 December; the latest is 19:28 on 29 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 12 June to 07:19 on 8 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Peshawar different

Sunset here is followed by about 26 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

The shallow approach angle at 34° stretches this evening's golden hour to 49 minutes, against about 41 for a city on the equator today.

Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 4h 32m here — among the widest of the 136 cities tracked in Pakistan.

Over a year the sunset point slides 57° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is WNW.

Across August the sunset moves 33 minutes earlier, averaging about 67 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Peshawar

Arrive by 17:59. Golden hour opens at 18:14 and the sun is down by 18:47, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 283° 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 19:03 and runs to 19:13, the end of civil twilight and 25m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
