Does anybody really know what time it is (part 2)

The time in China follows a single standard time, even though China spans almost five geographical time zones.

Because of a legacy of Mao Tse-tung and the Communist Party’s desire for unified control, China, almost as wide as the continental United States, has officially only one time zone — Beijing time.

But wait, there’s more –

The Burj Khalifa building in Dubai is so tall you can see two sunsets from it in one day.

The building — the largest in the world — is so tall that you can watch the sunset from the base of the building, get into an elevator right to the top, and watch the sunset all over again.
