The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:51 on 6 December; the latest is 19:30 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 04:48 on 13 June to 07:20 on 6 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Zibo different

Evening golden hour runs 50 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 40 — at 36.8° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.

Over a year the sunset point slides 60° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Planning a sunset photo in Zibo
