Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:05 on 8 December; the latest is 20:08 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 05:01 on 15 June to 07:57 on 4 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Hohhot different

On standard time the sun peaks at 12:24, 25 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

At 40.8°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 27 minutes to arrive: 3 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Evening golden hour runs 53 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 40.8° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Between the June and December solstices the length of the day swings by 5h 51m here — among the widest of the 677 cities tracked in China.

Over a year the sunset point slides 63° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Across September the sunset moves 49 minutes earlier, averaging about 101 seconds a day.

Elevation matters at 1,051 m. The visible horizon drops 1.12°, pushing sunset 5.9 minutes later and sunrise the same amount earlier than a sea-level observer would see.

Planning a sunset photo in Hohhot

Arrive by 17:33. Golden hour opens at 17:48 and the sun is down by 18:24, 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 18:41 and runs to 18:51, the end of civil twilight and 27m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
