Representatives of the Association of Cities of Vietnam are in the Sydney area visiting and touring with local organizations.

The Vietnamese group is in Cape Breton until Tuesday on a capacity-building technical mission as part of the Partners for Municipal Innovation — Local Economic Development project, an initiative of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and Global Affairs Canada. They are hosted by the Cape Breton Partnership.

Among the stops being made by the visiting Vietnamese delegates is a tour of the Membertou Heritage Park, a five-acre site offering a living history of the people of Membertou and an indoor exhibit and program area that offer visitors a full immersion into an ancient culture.
