Ankara
blue hour today
Blue hour in Ankara is the short, cool-toned window when the sun sits just below the horizon and the sky glows deep blue — prized for cityscapes and waterfronts. Below are today's blue hour, golden hour and sunset times.
Summer here means long days, late golden hour, and warm horizons — best for late-evening portraits and architecture photography in soft amber light.
