The sun rises in the east, same as in the northern hemisphere. The sun rising is a function of the planet's rotation, which is the same universally. The difference in seasons between the northern and southern hemispheres is a function of the Earth's tilt, and the changes in what areas face the sun more strongly depending on what point the Earth is in it's orbit around the sun.

In the northern hemisphere, the moon generally rises in the east and sets in the west, just like the sun. However, the precise direction can vary slightly depending on the moon's position relative to the Earth's axis and the observer's location.


Does the sun rise in the southern hemisphere first?

No. The Sun is always above the horizon somewhere in the Southern hemisphere just as it always is above the horizon somewhere in the Northern hemisphere. About half of each hemisphere is illuminated at every instant (well more of the Southern hemisphere is illuminated from the end of September to the end of March and more of the Northern hemisphere during the other half year).

How does the sun always rise in the east and set in west?

The sun actually doesn't move. The earth is spinning on an axis and this rotation gives the impression of the sun moving across the sky. Its the earths spin that moves, in the northern hemisphere in an anticlockwise direction
