Royal Visit Down Under: King Charles and Queen Camilla's Australian Tour

King Charles and Queen Camilla's recent tour to Canberra marks Charles' 16th official visit to Australia and the first since his cancer diagnosis. Their itinerary includes the Australian War Memorial and a visit to Parliament. The couple also plans to visit Sydney and Samoa.

King Charles and Queen Camilla arrived in Canberra, Australia, marking their first visit to the city in nearly ten years and Charles' 16th official visit to the country. The trip holds special significance as it's his first major foreign engagement since his cancer diagnosis earlier this year.

The royal couple commenced their Australian agenda by visiting the Australian War Memorial, where they honored the country's fallen soldiers with a floral tribute. The visit sparked interest among locals, drawing a mix of monarchists and republicans alike, eager to engage with the dignitaries.

Charles and Camilla's itinerary includes meetings with government officials and a stop at the National Bushfire Behaviour Research Laboratory. Here, King Charles will witness an environmental demonstration of the 'pyroton' wind tunnel, showcasing the devastating effects of bushfires—a cause close to his heart.
