Hangzhou Jianqiao Airport, Military air base in Jianqiao Subdistrict, China.

The airport features a single asphalt runway designated as 07/25, measuring 3,200 meters in length and 50 meters in width, located northeast of Hangzhou city center.

Established in 1931, the airport served as both a military base and civilian transportation hub until December 2000, when commercial operations moved to Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport.

The site holds national recognition as a Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected at the National Level, preserving its role in Chinese aviation development.

The facility maintains military operations under the People's Liberation Army Air Force, while civilian traffic now routes through Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport.

The airport underwent significant expansion in 1971 specifically to accommodate the anticipated visit of United States President Richard Nixon.
