About the time in Ankou
The zone identifier Asia/Shanghai is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Shanghai keeps pointing at Shanghai time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Ankou sits at latitude 35.22, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 17m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:17 and sunset at 07:34 local time, giving 13h 17m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.22, 106.79) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Ankou.
