About the time in Dongting
Dongting follows the civil time used across its region of China; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.

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.
