RELATIONSHIP
Currently, Weifang is our most difficult Sister City relationship, due mostly to distance and language barriers. Nonetheless, it is a functioning relationship; at least four times, visitors from Weifang have visited Pueblo and on two occasions officials from Pueblo have gone to Weifang. During their visits to Pueblo, Weifang officials have shown an interest in economic development and commercial trade issues. We have involved the Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce, the Latino Chamber of Commerce and the Pueblo Economic Development Corporation to look for mutual opportunities in these areas.
Pueblo delegations that have visited Weifang were fascinated with the history and culture of China.
