☀️ What time does the sun rise and set in Nepal today?

Today, measured from Nepal's geographic center, sunrise is at 05:12 AM and sunset is at 06:46 PM, giving a day length of 13h 34m. See the Sunrise & Sunset panel above. Note that a large country may span several time zones or sunrise/sunset times depending on the region.

📍 How far is Nepal from the Equator?

Nepal's geographic center is approximately 3,161 km (1,964 mi) from the Equator, in the northern hemisphere, and about 8,238 km from the Prime Meridian. See the Global Position panel above for the full breakdown.

🌐 What is on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Nepal?

The antipodal point of Nepal's geographic center — the spot exactly opposite it through the Earth's core — falls nearest to Hanga Roa, Chile, roughly 1,339 km from the true antipode. Since about 71% of the Earth's surface is ocean, most antipodal points land in open water rather than on a named place.
