I’m learning about time zones in school and just wanted to know.

Mountain time zone. Right now (when I post this comment) it is 8:19pm.
New Zealand Standard Time. I hope you’re finding lessons on time zones interesting. I always found It interesting that a little country like Great Britain once has different time zones, some only a few minutes apart and it wasn’t until train travel was common they had to put the whole country in one time zone so people could figure out when their train would arrive! https://www.timeanddate.com/time/uk/time-zone-background.html
@HumanBeing
it is actually! Some of the guys fool around tho
I am in the UK, so I think GMT, currently.
CST (China Standard Time, also called Beijing Time) All of China has only one time zone.
I know Emily but thanks anyway!
I didn’t know China we all the same timezone Kindness. That must mean a lot of people getting up in the dark a lot of the time but make for easy train and bus time tables. Sorry to read some people are fooling around in class, learning about time zones I guess isn’t intrestimg to everyone. It’s interesting to me. I’ve never lived any where with more than one time zone, like anything you get used to it. I wish I was better at maths so I could easily work out what time it in California , Mumbai the UK and France - the main places i want to knoe about. Instead, I use my tablet’s clock and have th cities I need on it.
=) everyone is so nice about the topic here! I wish other users would make forum threads like mine ., they are interesting
People’s attention is grabbed by different things…one person’s interesting is someone else’s dull as. I’m thinking now, if China only has one time zone, even though its geographically as big(ish) as the USA when does the new lunar new year actually start? I suppose, becuase it’s lunar, technically it’s when the moon (comes up, goes down, I dunno…) for each location in China rather than midnight? I have too much time to think at weekends!!!
