Here, we have calculated the local time in Alaska Standard Time based on the given time of 4:04 pm in China Standard Time. Our precise algorithm takes into account various factors, such as daylight saving time and the specific offset between the two time zones, to provide you with an accurate conversion.
Before the establishment of standardized time zones, local times were determined by each city's own solar noon (the time when the Sun is at its highest point in the sky).
By following these steps, you can convert the time between China Standard Time and Alaska Standard Time accurately. However, if you prefer a hassle-free way to find the time in another part of the world, feel free to use our Time Zone Conversion Calculator on the directory page.
