Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:00 on 5 December; the latest is 19:26 on 29 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 04:58 on 13 June to 07:17 on 8 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 10m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Xuzhou different

It takes roughly 25 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

The shallow approach angle at 34.2° stretches this evening's golden hour to 48 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Between solstices the sunset walks 58° 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.

Across September the sunset moves 40 minutes earlier, averaging about 84 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Xuzhou

Arrive by 17:14. Golden hour opens at 17:29 and the sun is down by 18:02, 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 18:18 and runs to 18:27, the end of civil twilight and 24m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
