Is facing south good in Singapore? Can do a video or advise? Sunlight heat?

[@neiltigas9633]

Is the sun also pass north in Southeast Asia? I thought sun moves east to south and west so I was thinking for my house to face north.

[@lewisgoose]

Southeast Asia is above the equator, so the sun is angled to the South for most of the year. Most of Southeast Asia is inside the Tropics lines (+/- 23.5 degrees) so during the Summer, the sub could be directly overhead, or slightly north-leaning.

Is east facing good?

[@leelee2138]

does that mean that north facing homes in australia get direct sunlight?

[@jordanelias187]

It means, for most of the year, the front of the home will get direct sunlight for most of the day.
