About the time in Dongcheng
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Dongcheng day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 01:00–09:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 05:41 and sunset at 06:55 local time, giving 13h 14m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (34.75, 116.13) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Dongcheng.
Dongcheng follows the civil time used across its region of China; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
