About the time in Platanal
Platanal sits at latitude -5.68, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 57m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:23 and sunset at 06:20 local time, giving 11h 57m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-5.68, -79.66) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Platanal.
Clocks in Platanal 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 Peru.
