Emperor Naruhito is saluted by a member of the honour guard as he and Empress Masako arrive at Stansted Airport, England on Saturday, June 22, 2024, ahead of a state visit. The state visit begins Tuesday, when King Charles III and Queen Camilla will formally welcome the Emperor and Empress before taking a ceremonial carriage ride to Buckingham Palace.
Naruhito and the Empress Masako, who studied at Oxford a few years after her husband, returned to the UK on Saturday for a weeklong stay combining the glitter and ceremony of a state visit with four days of less formal events that will allow the royal couple to revisit their personal connections to Britain.
The state visit begins Tuesday, when Charles and Queen Camilla will formally welcome the emperor and empress before they take a ceremonial carriage ride to Buckingham Palace. Naruhito will also lay a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier in Westminster Abbey then return to the palace for a state banquet.
“These moments, with my fellow students, brief as they were, were very important for me,’’ Naruhito wrote.
