Sunrise today lands at 06:06 and sunset at 06:08 local time, giving 12h 03m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-2.40, 29.01) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Shangi.
Around 28,064 people live in Shangi, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
The zone identifier Africa/Kigali is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Kigali keeps pointing at Kigali time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
