Hangzhou, the capital city of China’s eastern Zhejiang province, announced this week that it would launch a new Wifi scheme providing FREE wireless Internet access to all citizens in some public hotspots.
There’ll be over 2,000 Wi-Fi hotspots covering public spaces like tourist spots, squares, transportation hubs and public sectors available. Citizens only need to search for a Wifi access point named i-hangzhou and then connect to it. The Wifi covers an area around 220 square km. Try it for yourself next time you are around.
Signposts indicating “free Wi-Fi available here” will be set up around every hotspot.
