Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:03 on 7 December; the latest is 19:53 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 05:00 on 14 June to 07:42 on 5 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 11m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Dushanbe different

Clock noon and solar noon are 27 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 12:26 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.

Light lingers for 27 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 3 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 38.5°N buys you.

The shallow approach angle at 38.5° stretches this evening's golden hour to 52 minutes, against about 41 for a city on the equator today.

Over a year the sunset point slides 61° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is WNW.

Sunset drifts 77 seconds earlier each day this month — 39 minutes from the first of August to the last.

Standing 767 m up buys you 5.1 extra minutes of evening sun: the higher you are, the further over the curve of the Earth you can see, by 0.96° here.

Planning a sunset photo in Dushanbe

Arrive by 18:13. Golden hour opens at 18:28 and the sun is down by 19:04, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 284° 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 19:21 and runs to 19:31, the end of civil twilight and 27m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
