Because Penza is located at a high latitude of 53.2° N, it encounters the 'Persistent Twilight' phenomenon during the summer.

During the month of May, the solar path in Penza results in a shifting schedule. The Maghrib window is moving 2 minute(s) later by tomorrow. The Islamic night in Penza spans from sunset to dawn.
