King Bhumibol and Queen Sirikit travelled extensively around Europe during the year 1960 and in September they visited the Scandinavian countries. King Olav welcomed them to his capital on a day with pouring rain. Although the visit only lasted two days the King and Queen of Thailand were presented with elements of Norwegian life, both present and past. Both days were concluded with a grand white-tie event where Royal jewels were proudly on display. A separate page has been created on this visit and you can read more about it here.

The first even I looked at and the first I posted about on my blog was the Danish State Visit to Norway in February 1960. It was a full three day visit with all the glitter one could hope for.
