About the time in Shafinagar
Sunrise today lands at 05:57 and sunset at 06:18 local time, giving 12h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (8.43, 81.24) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Shafinagar.
Shafinagar follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
The zone identifier Asia/Colombo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Colombo keeps pointing at Colombo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
