The Prince of Wales, Prince Charles has been accumulating hours of diligent service to the monarchy and was topped the hardest working royal last year, with 521 public appearances in 2019.
Last week we have an update of his future tour with his wife Camilia to Ireland but it’s been confirmed that the royal pair would be pretty engaged with over 50 engagements in one week and three days. Impressive for the 71 & 72 year olds right?
Here’s a run down of their tour in March; Charles and Camilla will, together visit the Republic of Cyprus and The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan from 17 March until the 25 March, a prior stop to Bosnia and Herzegovina by the Prince alone, in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the Bosnian genocide.
During his time there, the royal will put the focus firmly on the reforms that have been made to improve citizens’ lives and then the royal couple will embark on their first official trip to Cyprus to recognise the work of the UN Peacekeeping Force and celebrate traditional Cypriot culture. It will be the first royal visit to the country since the Queen’s tour in 1993.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge went to RAF Akrotiri in December 2018, but the military base is in the Western Sovereign Base area – a British Overseas Territory. The couple will mostly explore the capital, Nicosia, but they will also visit rural areas of the Troodos mountains and the Larnaca district, where they will celebrate traditional Cypriot culture through food and crafts.
To round off their tour, Charles and Camilla will visit Jordan to commemorate the Queen’s long-standing relationship with the country’s royal family. Most of the tour will take place in the nation’s capital of Amman, though visits to cultural, religious and environmental sites across the country will also be included. It will also be a chance for Charles and Camilla to reunite with King Abdullah and Queen Rania of Jordan, as they learn what the country is doing to support refugees. The Duchess will see the work undertaken by Queen Rania to protect vulnerable children and mothers, as well as educate parents about child protection and safeguarding. Charles last visited Jordan in February 2015, while Camilla’s last trip was in 2013.
