Tianjin is a city in China, with a population of about 13,866,009. It uses the China Standard Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Shanghai).
Tianjin does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+8 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.

Because Tianjin lies at 39.14° N, 117.18° E, the length of the day changes moderately through the year: around the June solstice there are about 14 h 55 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 9 h 25 min.
