During the pandemic, the World Trade Center was approached by Gannett Productions and USA Today with an interest to produce a video on the first Sister Cities relationship between the U.S. and the People's Republic of China, St. Louis and Nanjing. With input from our St. Louis-Nanjing Sister Cities Committee, a two part series was produced. Click on the image above or the link below to view the first video in the series. Stay tuned next week for part two.
Discover the astonishing similarities and surprising differences of two sister cities. In part one of this two-part episode, we explore the rich connection between the first established sister cities - St. Louis and Nanjing.
Although separated geographically and distinct in their histories, China and the U.S. share global leadership roles and diverse, rich cultures. In this episode, we dive into the interconnectedness of two major Chinese and U.S. cities and the bonds they share through beer, BBQ, baseball and music.
