Danang, Kunming become sister cities

Agreements have been signed establishing sister city relations between Danang City and Kunming City, the capital and largest city in the Yunnan Province in Southwest China.


Speaking at the signing ceremony on February 6 in Kunming, leaders from the two cities said sister city relationships promote people to people cultural exchange, business connections, tourism and a sense of shared history.

They are also a better way to share appreciation for the arts and cuisine.

Kunming City is often called the spring city due to its weather. The city is home to several universities, museums, galleries and other important economic, cultural, and educational institutions.
