About the time in Xichang
Clocks in Xichang stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +8 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in China.
Xichang follows the civil time used across its region of China; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 05:27 and sunset at 06:33 local time, giving 13h 07m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (32.52, 120.59) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Xichang.
