Free Wi-Fi in Paris

As of June, ‘07, the City of Paris has made Wi-Fi access ‘free to all’ in various public buildings and parks. For a listing of the locations closest to you, you can check the www.paris.fr guide.

When I looked up the 14th arrondissement, I noted that the Parc Montsouris is the closest park for Wi-Fi access. Parc Montsouris is well worth the visit even without Wi-Fi, but you don’t even have to go that far if you happen to be in the Montparnasse district, you can go to the Vandamme Bibliotheque located on Avenue du Maine.
Note that Wi-Fi access is only available during the working hours for government offices. That means, for the moment, you also will be blogging- or whatever else you choose to do on the internet- for 35 hours per week.
P.S. Make sure your battery is charged. Free Wi-Fi access is allowed. Electricity is not. (Does that mean at libraries you can’t plug your computer into an outlet? I guess so.)

Free Wi-Fi may be available in the City of Paris, but this doesn’t hold true for CDG airport. There, you have to pay, by buying a ticket at one of the book/newspaper stores for access to the local system.
