As of right now, it is 2:25 PM on Thursday, May 21, 2026, in Chengdu, China. The city follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 throughout the entire year, as China does not observe daylight saving time. This means that Chengdu shares the same local time as other major Chinese cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai. Because Chengdu is located further west than these cities but still uses the same time zone, the sun rises and sets significantly later there than it does in the eastern part of the country.
