About the time in Cuenca
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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:16 and sunset at 06:02 local time, giving 11h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-12.16, -76.46) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Cuenca.
Clocks in Cuenca stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −5 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Peru.
