The day is 9 hours 42 minutes long in Bucharest, and losing 2 minutes a day. The sun peaks within a few minutes of twelve o’clock, so Romania’s offset fits its longitude about as closely as a whole-hour offset can.
The solar year swings 6 hours 43 minutes in Bucharest: 15 hours 33 minutes of daylight at the June solstice against 8 hours 50 minutes at the December one. Being north of the equator, its longest day falls in June — the opposite way round from the other hemisphere.
