Paris: Paris is the capital and largest city of France, with an estimated city population of 2.04 million in an area of 105.4 km2 (40.7 sq mi), and a metropolitan population of 13.2 million as of January 2026. Located on the river Seine in the centre of the Île-de-France region, it is the largest metropolitan area and fourth-most populous city in the European Union (EU). Nicknamed the "City of Light", partly because of its role in the Age of Enlightenment, Paris has been one of the world's major centres of finance, diplomacy, commerce, culture, fashion, and gastronomy since the 17th century.
Observes daylight saving time. Civil clocks shift forward by one hour during the local summer, swinging between standard UTC+01:00 and summer UTC+02:00. Transitions follow the IANA zone Europe/Paris.
Paris is listed in the dataset snapshot as 2 hours ahead of UTC (offset +02:00). 1 hour ahead of London, 7 hours behind Tokyo.
Geographically at longitude 2.35°, Paris's mean solar noon falls about 1 hour 51 minutes after civil 12:00 under the sampled +02:00 civil offset; during the alternate seasonal offset this shifts by about one hour on the clock — local sunrise and sunset run later on the clock than they would on true solar time.
Paris sits at 48.85°N in the northern hemisphere — daylight runs roughly 15 hours 58 minutes on the June solstice and about 8 hours 2 minutes on the December solstice.
