About the time in Shakou
Sunrise today lands at 06:03 and sunset at 06:54 local time, giving 12h 50m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (24.43, 113.52) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Shakou.
Shakou 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.
Shakou sits at latitude 24.43, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 50m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
