Longest and shortest day in Hezhou
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 13h 38m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 3 months, with 10h 37m.
Between them the day length swings by 3h 1m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:44 on 29 November; the latest is 19:26 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 05:44 on 9 June to 07:19 on 14 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Hezhou different
Clock noon and solar noon are 25 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 12:25 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.
It takes roughly 23 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 3h 1m here — among the narrowest of the 677 cities tracked in China.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 52° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Across September the sunset moves 30 minutes earlier, averaging about 63 seconds a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Hezhou
Arrive by 17:41. Golden hour opens at 17:56 and the sun is down by 18:26, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 269° 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 18:40 and runs to 18:49, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
