About the time in Chitwan
Chitwan sits at latitude 27.62, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 00m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Chitwan follows the civil time used across its region of Nepal; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Chitwan runs on Asia/Kathmandu, which puts the city UTC +5:45 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
