The greatest time change along a common border is at the
border between Afghanistan and China. Afghanistan is one of the few countries
to the half-hour versus Universal Time, specifically UT+4:30. China stretches
5,026 kilometers east-to-west, and yet it falls within a single time zone in
its entirety: Universal Time +8. Afghanistan shares a brief 76 kilometer
border with China at its far eastern tip. Anyone crossing between the two
countries would experience an astounding three and a half hour time change.
