About the time in Taiwan
Sunrise today lands at 05:33 and sunset at 06:25 local time, giving 12h 52m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (24.00, 121.00) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Taiwan.
Around 23,451,837 people live in Taiwan, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Taiwan sits at latitude 24.00, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 52m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
