About the time in Galpothukanda
Sunrise today lands at 06:01 and sunset at 06:19 local time, giving 12h 17m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.24, 80.65) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Galpothukanda.
Galpothukanda follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Galpothukanda sits at latitude 6.24, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 17m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
