About the time in Colonia
The zone identifier America/Lima is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Lima keeps pointing at Lima time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Colonia sits at latitude -3.51, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 01m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Around 237 people live in Colonia, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
