Yakima Morelia Sister City Association

This letter was the impetus that initiated a committee of Yakima citizens who then spent several months doing research. What are Sister City Associations?

We are a membership organization, with an all volunteer board of directors, who work together to
• Promote the mutual economic vitality of the two communities with special focus on tourism, business, and trade environments.
• Promote an atmosphere where people, especially young people, of both communities can become knowledgeable and understand their respective cultures and the concepts, elements

✨Morelia✨ the state capital of Michoacan, Mexico is a historic and beautiful city built during Mexico's viceregal era.

It is located in the central zone of the Mexican Republic at an elevation of 6400 ft. and is 187 miles west of Mexico City.

​Morelia has been named a Cultural World Heritage site by UNESCO. The best way to learn about Morelia is to walk through its plazas, gardens, palatial buildings, and churches in its historical center. Built in the 16th century around a Franciscan monastery, Morelia's 249 historic monuments are built mostly in warm pink stone following a strict chessboard design.

Michoacan is a Purepecha Indian word that means "fisherman's place." It is a region rich in history, tradition, culture, art, folklore, and gastronomy.

What is a Sister City? 🍎

Sister cities, also known as friendship towns, go back to the end of World War I when some English and French towns decided to partner together for their mutual benefit.

Their goal is to increase global cooperation at the municipal level, to promote cultural understanding and to stimulate private business and economic development.

Morelia, Michoacán and Yakima, WA are sister cities ❤️
