About the time in La Merced
Sunrise today lands at 05:58 and sunset at 06:14 local time, giving 12h 16m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (5.40, -75.88) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in La Merced.
La Merced runs on America/Bogota, which puts the city UTC −5 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.
Clocks in La Merced stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −5 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Colombia.
