About the time in Sakura Shi
The zone identifier Asia/Tokyo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Tokyo keeps pointing at Tokyo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sakura Shi sits at latitude 35.71, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 19m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:03 and sunset at 06:21 local time, giving 13h 19m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.71, 140.21) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sakura Shi.
