In Kanazawa, we are promoting a system in which foreign tourists, visitors on business and students can both obtain and dispatch local information easily through the Internet by means of a public Wi-Fi network.

There are a number of facilities and establishments in the city that have been set up as Wi-Fi network access spots.

The access points in facilities in Kanazawa which have the network name(SSID)can be found using the mark 「’freespot’=SecurityPassword(AES)」.
