Dunno how widespread this is, but I've heard that unofficially some regions of western China use different time zones


It is apparently widespread in Xinjiang outside of the biggest cities, to the point where bus timetables are written in unofficial timezones. In some cities you have know whether the business uses local time or standard time to understand the opening/closing hours (although I guess it's usually pretty obvious). To a large extent it is political so I guess probably it's being eradicated as part of the current genocide.
