About the time in Chatou
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.
Chatou sits at latitude 38.56, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 26m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:43 and sunset at 07:09 local time, giving 13h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (38.56, 114.24) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Chatou.
