Qalyub, Mısır Güncel Saati — EEST.

Qalyub is a city containing a rural markaz, and an urban one. It is located in the Qalyubia Governorate of Egypt, in the northern part of the Cairo metropolitan area, at the start of the Nile Delta. In 1986, it had a population of 84,413 inhabitants, which grew to 106,804 residents by 2006, a more than average growth.

Distance-wise, Qalyub is closest to Dubai (~2,428 km), London (~3,498 km), Singapore (~8,265 km); Sydney is the far end at roughly 14,425 km. That ordering matters more than the timezone label for travel planning.
