About the time in Tsaratanana
Tsaratanana sits at latitude -23.11, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 30m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Tsaratanana follows the civil time used across its region of Madagascar; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
The zone identifier Indian/Antananarivo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Indian/Antananarivo keeps pointing at Antananarivo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
