Miandrarivo is located 101 km south-west of Antananarivo, so Dhuhr in Miandrarivo comes roughly 3 minutes later than in Antananarivo. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, which is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Miandrarivo.
