Rath Yatra Sunrise: what time?
Why is Rath Yatra on Sun 3 Jul in Baoding?
Rath Yatra is on Sun 3 Jul: Dwitiya holds sunrise that day.
Sunrise at 04:56 is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 15:53.
Dwitiya at sunrise, 04:56. Dwitiya: 15:53 Sat to 14:26.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rath Yatra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dwitiya runs from 15:53 on Sat 2 Jul to 14:26 on Sun 3 Jul, so it holds sunrise only on Sun 3 Jul, at 04:56. No text giving Rath Yatra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
