Hangzhou Jianqiao Airport (or Hangzhou Air Base), formerly romanized as Chien Chiao, is a People's Liberation Army Air Force Base in Hangzhou, the capital city of East China's Zhejiang province. It is located in the town of Jianqiao in Jianggan District, about 7 miles northeast of the city center. It served as the city's civilian airport from 1 January 1957 until 29 December 2000, when all commercial flights were transferred to the newly-built Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport.[2]
