+
+  # The {Timezone} class represents a time zone. It provides a factory method,
+  # {get}, to retrieve {Timezone} instances by their identifier.
+  #
+  # The {Timezone#to_local} method can be used to convert `Time` and `DateTime`
+  # instances to the local time for the zone. For example:
+  #
+  #     tz = TZInfo::Timezone.get('America/New_York')
+  #     local_time = tz.to_local(Time.utc(2005,8,29,15,35,0))
+  #     local_datetime = tz.to_local(DateTime.new(2005,8,29,15,35,0))
+  #
+  # Local `Time` and `DateTime` instances returned by `Timezone` have the
+  # correct local offset.
+  #
+  # The {Timezone#local_to_utc} method can by used to convert local `Time` and
+  # `DateTime` instances to UTC. {Timezone#local_to_utc} ignores the UTC offset
+  # of the supplied value and treats if it is a local time for the zone. For
+  # example:
+  #
+  #     tz = TZInfo::Timezone.get('America/New_York')
+  #     utc_time = tz.local_to_utc(Time.new(2005,8,29,11,35,0))
+  #     utc_datetime = tz.local_to_utc(DateTime.new(2005,8,29,11,35,0))
+  #
+  # Each time zone is treated as sequence of periods of time ({TimezonePeriod})
+  # that observe the same offset ({TimezoneOffset}). Transitions
+  # ({TimezoneTransition}) denote the end of one period and the start of the
+  # next. The {Timezone} class has methods that allow the periods, offsets and
+  # transitions of a time zone to be interrogated.
+  #
+  # All methods that take `Time` objects as parameters can be used with
+  # arbitrary `Time`-like objects that respond to both `to_i` and `subsec` and
+  # optionally `utc_offset`.
+  #
+  # The {Timezone} class is thread-safe. It is safe to use class and instance
+  # methods of {Timezone} in concurrently executing threads. Instances of
+  # {Timezone} can be shared across thread boundaries.
+  #
+  # The IANA Time Zone Database maintainers recommend that time zone identifiers
+  # are not made visible to end-users (see [Names of
+  # timezones](https://data.iana.org/time-zones/theory.html#naming)). The
+  # {Country} class can be used to obtain lists of time zones by country,
+  # including user-friendly descriptions and approximate locations.
