Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:02 on 2 December; the latest is 19:04 on 1 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 05:01 on 11 June to 06:56 on 11 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Jinhua different

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

The shallow approach angle at 29.1° stretches this evening's golden hour to 46 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Between solstices the sunset walks 54° 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 September the sun will be setting 35 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 72 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Jinhua

Arrive by 17:07. Golden hour opens at 17:22 and the sun is down by 17:53, 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 18:08 and runs to 18:17, the end of civil twilight and 23m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
