Timeline
18:41
Start with a drink at The York Pub and Bar. It is open late and close enough to begin your evening without rushing.
19:11
Walk to Güvenpark. Arrive fifteen minutes before sunset to find a good spot in the grass or on a bench as the sky begins to turn.
19:26
Watch the sun set toward the WNW. The golden light from 18:50 will have already washed over the park, and the final moments of daylight will fade into twilight.
19:56
Head back to The York Pub and Bar for a nightcap or a late meal while the city lights come on.
