What time is it in Luoyang (Guangdong) right now?
The time in Luoyang (Guangdong), China is 8:43 pm, 20:43 on a 24 hour clock, on Sunday September 27, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the Asia/Shanghai rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.
Luoyang (Guangdong) sits at 23.16 degrees north and 114.27 degrees east, inside the tropics, north of the equator and 2,576 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 120.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 5.7 degrees west of that line. Those 5.7 degrees are worth 22 minutes 54 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 12:14 pm rather than on the stroke of twelve.

Moon phase over Luoyang (Guangdong) tonight
The moon is a waning gibbous tonight, 16.4 days into its cycle and about 97% lit. The next full moon falls on October 26, 2026 at 12:11 pm Shanghai time, and the next new moon on October 10, 2026 at 11:49 pm. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Luoyang (Guangdong) clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Luoyang (Guangdong)
There is no clock change scheduled in Asia/Shanghai within the next 400 days, so Luoyang (Guangdong) stays at UTC+8 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Luoyang (Guangdong) an easy city to schedule against: a meeting fixed at a given hour here holds its relationship to UTC all year, and only the other end of the call can move.

Great-circle distance, computed from the coordinates rather than road mileage. The nearest city we cover to Luoyang (Guangdong) is Huizhou, China at 16 km, and the furthest is San Salvador de Jujuy, Argentina at 19,892 km, which is 99% of the way to being exactly opposite.

The antipode of Luoyang (Guangdong)
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Luoyang (Guangdong), China and you come out at 23.16 degrees south, 65.73 degrees west. That point is near San Salvador de Jujuy, Argentina. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is San Salvador de Jujuy, Argentina, 123 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 9:43 am on Sunday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 23.16 degrees north becomes 23.16 degrees south, and 114.27 degrees east becomes 65.73 degrees west. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Luoyang (Guangdong) is one of the exceptions, with dry land on the far side. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC-4, roughly twelve hours from Luoyang (Guangdong), because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Luoyang (Guangdong)
Today the sun rises in Luoyang (Guangdong) at 6:13 am and sets at 6:15 pm, giving 12 hours 2 minutes of daylight. The dedicated page for this city carries the month by month table, the longest and shortest days of 2026, the golden and blue hour bands at both ends of the day, and all three twilight stages: sunrise and sunset times in Luoyang (Guangdong).

Sun and moon in Luoyang (Guangdong) today
The sun is up in Luoyang (Guangdong) for 12 hours 2 minutes today, from 6:13 am to 6:15 pm. The moon sets in Luoyang (Guangdong) at 6:29 am and comes up again at 6:28 pm. The next phase is the last quarter on October 3, 2026. The moon is full, or as near to it as makes no difference, and the whole of the face turned towards us is lit.
| Sun | Time in Luoyang (Guangdong) |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 4:58 am |
| Nautical dawn | 5:24 am |
| Civil dawn | 5:51 am |
| Sunrise | 6:13 am |
| Solar noon | 12:14 pm |
| Sunset | 6:15 pm |
| Civil dusk | 6:37 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 7:03 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 7:29 pm |
Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.
| Light band | Time in Luoyang (Guangdong) | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 5:51 am to 5:59 am | 0h 09m |
| Morning golden hour | 5:59 am to 6:43 am | 0h 44m |
| Evening golden hour | 5:45 pm to 6:28 pm | 0h 44m |
| Evening blue hour | 6:28 pm to 6:37 pm | 0h 09m |
Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.
| Moon | Reading in Luoyang (Guangdong) |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 6:28 pm |
| Moonset | 6:29 am |
| Phase | waning gibbous, waning |
| Illumination | 100% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 16.0 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 377,700 km |
Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

No hour on Sunday, September 27, 2026 is inside 9 to 5 in all 5 places, so nothing is highlighted as a shared working hour. Luoyang (Guangdong) and Los Angeles are 15 hours apart, which is more than the eight hour working day leaves room for. The closest is 3 of 5: from 4:00 pm in Luoyang (Guangdong) it is working hours in Luoyang (Guangdong), London and Delhi, but outside them in Los Angeles and New York. A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Luoyang (Guangdong)
Seven days from September 27, 2026, computed for Luoyang (Guangdong), China at 23.16 degrees north, 114.27 degrees east, on the clock of Asia/Shanghai. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Luoyang (Guangdong), China, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.
Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.
Qibla direction from Luoyang (Guangdong)
From Luoyang (Guangdong), China the qibla is 284.8 degrees on a true compass, which is west-northwest, or 14.8 degrees south of due west. The Kaaba is 7,571 km away, 4,705 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Luoyang (Guangdong), China to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.
The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Luoyang (Guangdong), China before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.

A live clock showing the current time in Luoyang (Guangdong), China, ready to paste into any page that accepts HTML. It reads Asia/Shanghai from the time zone database, so it stays right when Luoyang (Guangdong) changes its clocks, and it shows CST to every visitor wherever they are reading from.

The box needs 183 pixels of height for these settings, which is what the code above sets, and the numbers show at full size from 305 pixels of width up. Narrower than that they scale down rather than wrapping, and turning a line off makes the box shorter. The code updates with either.
