The Group of Twenty (G20) is an international forum for the governments and central bank leaders from 20 major members around the world. It was first founded in Berlin, in December 1999 with the aim of promoting global growth.
The members include 19 individual countries—Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, United Kingdom and United States. The final member is the European Union, represented by the European Commission and by the European Central Bank.
During 4-5 September, 2016, the G20 summit was held in Hangzhou. It is the first time G20 summit to be held in China and the second in an Asian country. Leaders of the G20 gathered here to discuss important things. Why choose Hangzhou to hold G20? Here are some reasons:

It is known as one of the best livable cities and low-carbon cities in China.
◆It is also the first city in China to run a public bike rental service.
◆The e-commerce giant Alibaba was founded in Hangzhou, which is also the hometown of its founder Jack Ma.
◆Chinese President Xi Jinping also served as Zhejiang province's Communist Party Chief and is said to fondly remember the five years he spent in Hangzhou.
In order to get ready for the G20 summit, Chinese leaders have spent several billion on new highways and three-storey homes near the International Expo Centre, the venue for the summit, which was completed in April 2016 cost of £917 million. Around 225 factories have been closed to reduce the pollution.
