Friday ended the royals of Denmark’s week long state visit to Vietnam. It appears they had a delightful time, especially Prince Henrik, for he got a chance to show the family his childhood home. Besides that, overall, the Danish royals seemed to have enjoyed being together in the southeastern Asian country. 
In the morning in Ho Chi Minh, Henrik and his son, Crown Prince Frederik, opened the HCMC Business Seminars, which was followed by visits to some of its seminars. The father and son duo split afterwards, as Frederik went to the Anh Phu Water Supply to view the Grundfos installation, before going to visit Scancom, a Danish garden furniture manufactuer located in Vietnam. Meanwhile, the Prince Consort took part in the “Taste a Bite” event.
While those two were doing their part representing Denmark, Queen Margrethe II and her daughter in law, Crown Princess Mary, were visiting the Phasion/Viedam Moulding Factory, before going on a visit to Maersk, another Danish company doing business in Vietnam. At Maersk, they were briefed on its helmet-wearing campaign.
In the afternoon, all four royals gathered for a press conference in Thao Dien Village. That presser brought a close to their tour of the country.
But they are not back in Denmark yet. The Queen and the Prince Consort are staying in Vietnam until Monday, while the Crown Princely couple are heading to South Korea, where Frederik will take part in the International Sailing Federation’s meetings and gala dinners this week.
