Maying is located 1,244 km south-west of Beijing, so Dhuhr in Maying comes roughly 46 minutes later than in Beijing. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Maying.

In Maying you pray towards the west, at an angle of 275.9° from true north; the Kaaba is 6,452 km away. This bearing is calculated with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Maying and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E). Remember that a compass points to magnetic north, which can differ by a few degrees from true north.
