Chittagong is a city in Bangladesh, with a population of about 3,920,222. It uses the Bangladesh Standard Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Dhaka).
Chittagong does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+6 all year round. The time difference with places that do change their clocks — such as most of Europe and North America — therefore shifts by one hour twice a year.
Other cities on the same clock include Dhaka.
Because Chittagong lies at 22.34° N, 91.83° E, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 13 h 30 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 10 h 46 min.
