Airport WiFi at HGH
Registration required to connect — look for the sign-in page after joining the network.
Popular foreign apps and sites (Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.) are blocked in mainland China regardless of network — international travelers who need them should arrange a VPN before arrival or use an eSIM with roaming data that routes outside China's firewall.
Registration usually requires scanning your passport or entering a local phone number for an SMS code — if you don't have a Chinese SIM, ask at an information desk for help, or just rely on your own eSIM data instead.
