Calendar j = new GregorianCalendar(TimeZone.getTimeZone(\"US/Mountain\"));
j.         


        

Answer 1

The zone information can be obtained directly for many major cities worldwide. This includes Phoenix, which has the zone identifier "America/Phoenix".

You can find the list of available zone identifiers using the method TimeZone.getAvailableIDs() or by manually inspecting the contents of the JRE lib/zi directory.

As other posters have noted, the "US/Arizona" zone information is distinct from "US/Mountain".
