Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:29 on 23 November; the latest is 18:42 on 7 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 05:31 on 4 June to 06:38 on 20 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Yangon different

It takes roughly 22 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

Summer and winter days differ by 2h 0m here, less seasonal variation than almost anywhere else in Myanmar we track.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 49° round to WNW. Tonight, W.

Sunset drifts 49 seconds earlier each day this month — 24 minutes from the first of September to the last.

Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 7 May and 6 August — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon.

The times barely move this week: the shortest day of the year falls on 21 December, in 3 months, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 11 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.

Planning a sunset photo in Yangon

Arrive by 17:15. Golden hour opens at 17:30 and the sun is down by 17:58, 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 18:11 and runs to 18:20, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.

Golden hour in Yangon — times, duration and the best months Morning and evening windows, the next seven days, and how much golden light each month gives you.
