A Song dynasty governor ordered banyans planted throughout Fuzhou in the 1060s so that the whole city would be in shade and no one would need a parasol in summer. A few trees from that time are still standing.
The clock: Fuzhou keeps UTC+8. It faces Taiwan across about 180 km of strait, and the two sides share the same clock.
Fuzhou lies at 119.3°E. Its time zone, UTC+8, is built around the 120°E meridian. The two very nearly coincide: solar noon — the moment the sun is highest — falls at about 12:03, which is as close to true solar time as a zone this wide can get. The zone holds UTC+8 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 13h 46m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 10h 30m. The swing between them is 3h 16m. At this latitude the seasons are visible in the clock, but never dramatic.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Fuzhou the sun comes up earliest on 10 June at 05:10, while the latest sunset waits until 4 July at 18:59. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Fuzhou that civil twilight runs about 23 minutes at the equinox.
Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
