About the time in Lakshahena
Sunrise today lands at 06:01 and sunset at 06:20 local time, giving 12h 20m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (7.55, 80.58) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Lakshahena.
Lakshahena runs on Asia/Colombo, which puts the city UTC +5:30 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.
The zone identifier Asia/Colombo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Colombo keeps pointing at Colombo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
