Zhongxing is located 719 km south of Beijing, so Dhuhr in Zhongxing is called roughly 9 minutes earlier than in Beijing. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Zhongxing.
