Sun questions for Bangkok

How high does the sun get in Bangkok?

Bangkok is in the tropics (13.8° N), so the noon sun passes directly overhead — leaving almost no shadow — around 27 April and 16 August. It is lowest at the December solstice, reaching 52.8° above the horizon at solar noon.

How long is twilight in Bangkok?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 21 minutes around the equinoxes and 24 minutes at midsummer in Bangkok. Close to the equator the sun climbs steeply, so dusk turns to night quickly.

When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Bangkok?

The earliest sunrise is at 05:50 around 28 May and the latest sunset at 18:51 around 6 July. They don't fall on the solstice itself because solar noon drifts by up to a quarter of an hour through the year (the equation of time).

How fast do the days get longer or shorter in Bangkok?

Very slowly. Near the equator day length changes by at most 46s from one day to the next.
