About time in Hong Kong
Hong Kong is eight hours ahead of UTC and has not observed daylight saving since 1979, when it was dropped after a long and inconsistent history of seasonal changes. Its offset matches mainland China, which runs the entire country — spanning some five geographic time zones — on Beijing time.
