Current time in Yangpu, China right now

What time is it in Yangpu right now?
The time in Yangpu, China is 9:09 pm, 21:09 on a 24 hour clock, on Saturday September 26, 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.
Yangpu sits at 31.26 degrees north and 121.52 degrees east, in the subtropical belt and 3,476 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 120.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 1.5 degrees east of that line. Those 1.5 degrees are worth 6 minutes 5 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 11:45 am rather than on the stroke of twelve.
Yangpu time zone and UTC offset
The IANA zone for Yangpu, China is Asia/Shanghai. Right now it is running at UTC+8 and the abbreviation in force is CST. Yangpu does not change its clocks at any point in the year. The offset stays at UTC+8 in January and in July alike, so no conversion involving Yangpu ever needs a seasonal footnote.

Moon phase over Yangpu tonight
The moon is a waning gibbous tonight, 15.4 days into its cycle and about 100% lit. The next full moon falls on September 27, 2026 at 12:48 am 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 Yangpu clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Yangpu
There is no clock change scheduled in Asia/Shanghai within the next 400 days, so Yangpu stays at UTC+8 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Yangpu 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.
How far Yangpu is from other cities
Great-circle distance, computed from the coordinates rather than road mileage. The nearest city we cover to Yangpu is Pudong, China at 3 km, and the furthest is Concordia, Argentina at 19,969 km, which is 100% of the way to being exactly opposite.
| City | km | miles | Direction | Their time |

The antipode of Yangpu
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Yangpu, China and you come out at 31.26 degrees south, 58.48 degrees west. That point is near Concordia, Argentina. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Concordia, Argentina, 46 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 10:09 am on Saturday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 31.26 degrees north becomes 31.26 degrees south, and 121.52 degrees east becomes 58.48 degrees west. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Yangpu 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 Yangpu, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Yangpu
Today the sun rises in Yangpu at 5:44 am and sets at 5:46 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 Yangpu.
Sun and moon in Yangpu today
The sun is up in Yangpu for 12 hours 2 minutes today, from 5:44 am to 5:46 pm. The moon sets in Yangpu at 5:01 am and comes up again at 5:22 pm. The next phase is the full moon on September 27, 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 Yangpu |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 4:24 am |
| Nautical dawn | 4:52 am |
| Civil dawn | 5:20 am |
| Sunrise | 5:44 am |
| Solar noon | 11:45 am |
| Sunset | 5:46 pm |
| Civil dusk | 6:10 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 6:38 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 7:07 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 Yangpu | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 5:20 am to 5:29 am | 0h 09m |
| Morning golden hour | 5:29 am to 6:16 am | 0h 47m |
| Evening golden hour | 5:14 pm to 6:01 pm | 0h 47m |
| Evening blue hour | 6:01 pm to 6:10 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 Yangpu |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 5:22 pm |
| Moonset | 5:01 am |
| Phase | full moon, waxing |
| Illumination | 100% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 15.0 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 381,600 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 Saturday, September 26, 2026 is inside 9 to 5 in all 5 places, so nothing is highlighted as a shared working hour. Yangpu 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 Yangpu it is working hours in Yangpu, 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 Yangpu
Seven days from September 26, 2026, computed for Yangpu, China at 31.26 degrees north, 121.52 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.
| Date | Fajr | Sunrise | Dhuhr | Asr | Maghrib | Isha |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saturday September 26 | 4:24 am | 5:44 am | 11:45 am | 3:11 pm | 5:46 pm | 7:02 pm |

Dhuhr is solar noon at Yangpu, 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 Yangpu
From Yangpu, China the qibla is 284.7 degrees on a true compass, which is west-northwest, or 14.7 degrees south of due west. The Kaaba is 8,036 km away, 4,993 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Yangpu, 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 Yangpu, 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.
Put a Yangpu clock on your site
A live clock showing the current time in Yangpu, China, ready to paste into any page that accepts HTML. It reads Asia/Shanghai from the time zone database, so it stays right when Yangpu changes its clocks, and it shows CST to every visitor wherever they are reading from. It is a plain iframe: no account, no script to install, nothing to pay.
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.
