Motivation and background

Since 1985, the City of Hue had been requesting the City of Kyoto to form sister city ties between the two. During the course of this period, both citizens deepened their friendship through the academic programs, and educational and welfare programs.

When the mayor of Kyoto met the mayor of Hue on the occasion of the 13th World Conference of Historical Cities in Hue in 2012, they approved to sign the partner city agreement in the following year which marks the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relation between Japan and Vietnam. The mayor of Hue visited Kyoto and both mayors signed the agreement in 2013.
