Current time in Beijing, China
This landing is a full-screen-capable live clock for Beijing civil time. The IANA zone is Asia/Shanghai—the same zone China uses for Beijing Time (CST, UTC+8) year-round.
China does not observe daylight saving time, so the offset on this page does not jump in March or November. Treat the digits above as Beijing Time, not as a separate “China has many zones” clock; Ürümqi has its own city URL if you need Xinjiang offset details.
Keep the tab open if you are using it as a wall or desk clock. For a board of many cities, use the world-clock hub; this URL is only Beijing.
