About the time in Pastra
Sunrise today lands at 06:41 and sunset at 08:18 local time, giving 13h 37m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (42.12, 23.22) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Pastra.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Pastra day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 06:00–14:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
The zone identifier Europe/Sofia is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Europe/Sofia keeps pointing at Sofia time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
