About the time in Belén
Belén sits at latitude 16.56, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 35m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:56 and sunset at 06:31 local time, giving 12h 35m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (16.56, -92.79) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Belén.
The zone identifier America/Mexico_City is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mexico_City keeps pointing at Mexico City time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
