Not sure if this what you're looking for, but try DateTime

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');

$datetime = new DateTime();
$datetime->setTimestamp($yourTimestamp);
echo $datetime->getTimezone()->getName();
echo $datetime->format(DATE_ATOM);

$la_time = new DateTimeZone('America/Los_Angeles');
$datetime->setTimezone($la_time);
echo $datetime->getTimezone()->getName();
echo $datetime->format(DATE_ATOM);
