About the time in Gaoyu
Gaoyu sits at latitude 35.71, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 18m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:34 and sunset at 06:53 local time, giving 13h 18m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.71, 117.30) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Gaoyu.
The zone identifier Asia/Shanghai is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Shanghai keeps pointing at Shanghai time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
