Undated file photo provided by city of Perth, Australia shows the Council House in Perth. The Australian city of Perth is almost 8,000 km from China, but its relationship with China is closer than that distance suggests. Often referred to as Australia's western gateway, Perth also shares a time zone with China, one of its biggest trade and economic partners. Perth established sister city relationships with Chinese cities Nanjing in 1998, and Chengdu in 2012. In an interview with Xinhua, Lord Mayor of Perth Lisa Scaffidi described the relationship between the cities as "extremely important." (Xinhua/City of Perth)
