About the time in Sanxi
The zone identifier Asia/Shanghai is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Shanghai keeps pointing at Shanghai time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sanxi runs on Asia/Shanghai, which puts the city UTC +8 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 06:20 and sunset at 07:27 local time, giving 13h 06m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (31.76, 107.22) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sanxi.
