King Charles visited Cardiff, Wales today, accompanied by the royal wife, Camilla.
This trip completes his tour of the countries that make up the United Kingdom, as provided for in the so-called “Operation Spring Tide” protocol for the new monarch.
Charles was the longest-serving Prince of Wales, a title given to the heir to the throne and has now passed to his son Prince William.
In the local Senedd parliament, the king spoke in Welsh, saying he knows the body shares his grief over the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth. “Wales has a special place in my heart,” he added.
Earlier, he had received the condolences of MPs, while a eulogy had preceded in Cardiff’s Llandaff Cathedral.
At Cardiff Castle Charles received the political leadership of Wales and then organized reception.
In between, he had the opportunity to greet the assembled crowd, exchanging handshakes.
In the evening the new monarch will receive religious leaders at Buckingham Palace in London, before standing by his mother’s coffin at Westminster Hall for 15 minutes, along with his sister, Princess Anne and his two brothers, Princes Andrew and Edward, in the so-called Vigil of the Princes.
