About the time in Xihu
Sunrise today lands at 05:42 and sunset at 06:57 local time, giving 13h 15m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (36.10, 115.71) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Xihu.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Xihu day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 01:00–09:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
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.
