Prince Charles and Camilla on Athens walkabout

(10 May 2018) Prince Charles, the heir to the British throne, and his wife Camilla, took a brief walk through central Athens on Thursday, during an official visit to Greece.
The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall chatted with passers-by and visited two churches, including one of the oldest in Athens.
Before their walkabout, Charles met the head of Greece's Orthodox Christian Church, Archbishop Hieronymos.
Charles has long been interested in Orthodox Christianity, privately visiting monasteries in Romania and Greece where his paternal great grandfather reigned and his father, Prince Philip, was born.
The royal couple arrived in Greece for a three-day visit on Wednesday, meeting the country's prime minister and president.
They were expected to visit the island of Crete on Friday.
