The day is 9 hours 25 minutes long in Budapest, and losing 3 minutes a day. The sun peaks at 11:27 am, 33 minutes before noon on the clock. A UTC offset is a promise that the sun is overhead at midday on one meridian, and Budapest sits 16 minutes of solar time east of UTC+1:00’s. The rest is the equation of time, which swings about a quarter of an hour either way across the year.

The solar year swings 7 hours 32 minutes in Budapest: 15 hours 58 minutes of daylight at the June solstice against 8 hours 26 minutes at the December one. Being north of the equator, its longest day falls in June — the opposite way round from the other hemisphere.
