Sichuan lies 1,517 km south-west of Beijing, so Dhuhr in Sichuan comes roughly 49 minutes later than in Beijing. The gap is due to longitude: each degree shifts solar noon by about four minutes, which is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Sichuan.
Qibla in Sichuan and distance to Makkah
From Sichuan you pray towards the west, at an angle of 277.3° from true north; the Kaaba is 6,417 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Sichuan and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E).
