Sister cities
Twinned with Sydney
9 of 14 in this atlas
Sydney maintains formal ties with a spread of cities across several continents, from Dili, Guangzhou, Manila, Nagoya, and Seoul in Asia to Islamabad and New Delhi on the subcontinent, plus Mexico City and Milan further afield. Nearly all of these pairings are declared by both sides, with New Delhi standing as the sole exception, naming Sydney without the connection being returned.
