Daylight Saving Time Ended in Germany

It was really a different experience to live in Germany with two different time zones. When i arrived in Germany i was very happy that because the daylight was lasted till 10'O clock. When the days passes the daylight also started to dim very soon. Before 5'O clock itself its started to darken.


When local daylight time was about to reach Sunday, 29 october 2017, 03:00:00 German clocks were turned backward 1 hour to sunday, 29 october 2017, 02:00:00 local standard time instead. Sunrise and sunset were about 1 hour earlier on 29 october 2017 than the day before. There was more light in the morning. also called Fall Back and Winter time. 


Daylight Saving Time (DST) is the practice of setting the clocks forward 1 hour from standard time during the summer months, and back again in the fall, in order to make better use of natural daylight. Daylight Savings Time was first introduced by Germany during the Great War and later so many other countries and many other European nations were started to follow it. 

Now the gap between German and Indian time is 4.5 hours.
