Guapimirim lies 913 km south-east of Brasília, so Dhuhr in Guapimirim comes roughly 20 minutes earlier than in Brasília. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude shifts solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Guapimirim.
