About the time in Peshawar
Around 4,758,762 people live in Peshawar, 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 05:39 and sunset at 06:54 local time, giving 13h 16m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (34.01, 71.58) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Peshawar.
The zone identifier Asia/Karachi is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Karachi keeps pointing at Karachi time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
