About the sun in Tanakpur

In Tanakpur, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 14h 00m of daylight, and the shortest is 22 December, with 10h 17m: a difference of 3 hours 43 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 11 June (5:10 AM) and the latest sunset on 1 July (7:13 PM). These dates do not fall on the solstice because Earth's orbit is elliptical and its axis is tilted, so solar noon drifts through the year. Tanakpur lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 84.4° above the horizon, on 21 June.
