About Xiamen time
Xiamen keeps one clock.
Xiamen hums at a coastal pace in China's Fujian province. Offices start early and often stretch past sunset, but breaks by the shore help reset the workday. Without daylight saving, CST is steady, making it easy to slot meetings with teams farther east without chasing clock shifts.
