Wuhan is a city in China, in Hubei, with a population of about 13,739,000. It uses the China Standard Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Shanghai).
Wuhan 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.
Other cities on the same clock include Shanghai, Chongqing, Chengdu, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen.
Because Wuhan lies at 30.58° N, 114.27° E, the length of the day changes moderately through the year: around the June solstice there are about 14 h 08 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 10 h 10 min.
