Photographs supplied by Graeme Saunders

A tree commemorates the establishment of the Friendship City relationship between Melbourne and Thessaloniki in Greece in 1984. 

The Friendship Cities Program is a way for the City to initiate relationships — on a municipal government to municipal government basis — with international cities on a less formal basis than through an official sister city relationship.
