c# - Get local time based on coordinates

I am programming an application that should give the local time based on the coordinates (lat&long) that you give it.

I only know of 2 methods to do that:

1st: Get the TimeZone Name, and then find its local time. 2nd: Use the Google API and receive the time as an offset and UTC not Local.

I decided to use the 1st method because seemed easier, so I decided to use the GeoTimeZone to get the Time Zone... Problem is that then I don′t know how to get the local time on that TimeZone... Here′s the code I wrote to get the TimeZone name.

string tz = TimeZoneLookup.GetTimeZone(lat, lon).Result;

variables lat & lon are of course the coordinates.

Thank you!

Edit: My question is how can I get the LocalTime on that TimeZone?

Here's my solution. It works offline (so no call to an api). It's fast and the packages are widely used and available on Nuget.

string tzIana = TimeZoneLookup.GetTimeZone(lat, lng).Result;
TimeZoneInfo tzInfo = TZConvert.GetTimeZoneInfo(tzIana);
DateTimeOffset convertedTime = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTime(DateTimeOffset.UtcNow, tzInfo);
