About the time in Xihu
The zone identifier Asia/Shanghai is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Shanghai keeps pointing at Shanghai time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Xihu sits at latitude 32.43, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 08m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Clocks in Xihu 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.
