Barcelona: Barcelona is a city on the northeastern coast of Spain. It is the capital and largest city of the autonomous community of Catalonia, as well as the second-most populous municipality of Spain. With a population of 1.7 million within city limits, its urban area extends to numerous neighbouring municipalities within the province of Barcelona and is home to around 5.7 million people, making it the fifth most populous urban area of the European Union after Paris, the Ruhr area, Madrid and Milan. It is one of the largest metropolises on the Mediterranean Sea, located on the coast between the mouths of the rivers Llobregat and Besòs, bounded to the west by the Serra de Collserola mountain range.
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/Madrid.
Barcelona 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 2.16°, Barcelona'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.
