About the time in Alwatta
Sunrise today lands at 06:00 and sunset at 06:20 local time, giving 12h 20m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (7.45, 80.66) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Alwatta.
Alwatta follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Alwatta sits at latitude 7.45, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 20m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
