Time in Shangri-La, China

Time zone: CST (UTC/GMT +08:00) — Asia/Shanghai

Local time here is CST, which sits 8 hours ahead of UTC, written UTC+08:00. The canonical zone name is Asia/Shanghai, and that is what to pick from a time zone dropdown.

Daylight saving is not observed here, so UTC+08:00 is year-round. Any seasonal drift you notice against another city comes from that city, not from Shangri-La.

China is not on a single clock: the 452 cities listed here fall across 2 time zones, so times elsewhere in the country will not match Shangri-La.

Population: about 130,000 — 330th largest of the 399 China cities indexed here.
