Sunrise and sunset come from Drik's Chhath calendar; it prints no separate clock time for the arghya.
The four days
Day one is Nahay Khay: a bath and a vegetarian meal. Day two is Kharna: a day-long fast broken in the evening with jaggery kheer. On day three the setting sun gets Sandhya Arghya, and on day four the rising sun gets Usha Arghya, which ends the vow. (Source: Wikipedia, Chhath)
- Reach the ghat at least half an hour before sunset; expect crowds and a chill.
