Where does the sun rise in Argentina?
The sun always rises in the east, everywhere and regardless of the country or continent. The easternmost city in Argentina is Bernardo de Irigoyen in the province of Norte Grande. There, the sun rises at 6:37 am and sets at 6:45 pm these days. The latest sunset is currently experienced in the west in the city of Yacimiento Río Turbio (Patagonia) at 19:59.Duration of the sunset
The distance from the equator and the path of the sun determines not only the time of sunrise and sunset. The farther a country is from the equator, the more oblique the sun's path is to the horizon, causing sunset to last for a different duration. Buenos Aires lies on the 35th degree of southern latitude and is therefore quite far away from the equator. While a sunset near the equator lasts only about 20 minutes, in Argentina, this period averages 31 minutes. In June, it's about 29 minutes in Buenos Aires, while in December it's 32 minutes.International cities for comparison
