About the time in Hekou
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.
Sunrise today lands at 05:56 and sunset at 06:44 local time, giving 12h 48m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (23.18, 115.61) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Hekou.
Hekou sits at latitude 23.18, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 48m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
