About the time in Santiago
Santiago follows the civil time used across its region of Peru; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Santiago sits at latitude -13.57, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 46m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:57 and sunset at 05:43 local time, giving 11h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-13.57, -71.98) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Santiago.
