    You can look at FROM_UNIXTIME()

    mysql> SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(1196440219);
    -> '2007-11-30 10:30:19'
mysql> SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(1196440219) + 0;
    -> 20071130103019.000000
mysql> SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), '%Y %D %M %h:%i:%s %x');
    -> '2007 30th November 10:30:59 2007'

    To see what specifier you can use, there’s a table at this location.
