About the time in Yan’an
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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:27 and sunset at 07:13 local time, giving 12h 46m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (22.45, 108.11) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Yan’an.
Clocks in Yan’an 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.
