About the time in Hungary
Around 9,768,785 people live in Hungary, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 05:44 and sunset at 07:42 local time, giving 13h 57m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (47.00, 20.00) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Hungary.
Hungary runs on Europe/Budapest, which puts the city UTC +2 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. 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.
