Can you see the sunset in Xifeng on a cloudy day?

There is no sunset in this weather.

Because on cloudy days, the sun is blocked by clouds and cannot directly illuminate the ground. Moreover, when the sun goes down, its light will pass through the atmosphere and refract at a certain angle, thus producing colors such as red, orange and yellow. This is what we usually call "the sun sets". However, on cloudy days, due to the cloud cover, the sunlight cannot directly shine on the ground through the atmosphere, so there is no beautiful sunset.

On cloudy days, the colors of the sky and the ground are gloomy and dreary, which makes the process of the gradual disappearance of the sun not obvious and noticeable. Therefore, if you want to enjoy the beautiful sunset scenery, you'd better choose sunny weather to make the afterglow of the sun and the color of the sky form a perfect contrast and blend, bringing gorgeous and spectacular visual enjoyment.
