Mexico City, November 3 (RHC-EFE) – Britain's Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, arrived yesterday in Mexico City for a four-day official visit aimed at tightening the relationship between the United Kingdom and Mexico.

Charles, the heir to the British throne, and Camilla arrived at the Mexico City airport at 1:15 p.m. On Sunday from Colombia, which they had been visiting since last Tuesday.

The royal couple visited the picturesque town of Real del Monte, where the basis for the relationship between the two nations was being laid with the presence of British miners in the silver mines there.
