Buffalo-Kanazawa Sister City Committee

In December 1962 the city of Buffalo joined the United States' Sister City International initiative by connecting with our first sister city, Kanazawa, Japan. Over the years Kanazawa and Buffalo have established a wonderful history of sharing resources. In 1996, Kanazawa was largely responsible for the major renovations to the Japanese Garden of Buffalo providing us with trees, shrubs, paths and the unique stone lanterns.
