- Candle lighting: 18:21
- Sunset: 18:39
- Shabbat ends: 19:14
Halachic note
Chengdu follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.
Chengdu has a small, active, and welcoming expatriate-led Jewish community centered around the local Chabad House. Visitors can join communal Shabbat meals and services, but must plan ahead for kosher food and accommodation within walking distance.
