About the time in Si’an
Sunrise today lands at 06:21 and sunset at 07:28 local time, giving 13h 06m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (31.71, 106.97) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Si’an.
Si’an 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.
Si’an follows the civil time used across its region of China; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
