Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:03 on 30 November; the latest is 18:48 on 3 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 05:03 on 9 June to 06:41 on 13 January.

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

What makes sunsets in New Taipei City different

It takes roughly 23 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

Photographers get 45 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.1× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

The gap between the longest and shortest day of the year comes to 3h 7m, one of the widest swings of any Taiwan city on the site.

Between solstices the sunset walks 52° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 27 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 54 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in New Taipei City

Arrive by 16:46. Golden hour opens at 17:01 and the sun is down by 17:32, 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 17:46 and runs to 17:55, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
