Mako, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Akishino, who will get married on the 26th of this month, visited the Imperial Palace on the 22nd and gave a wedding greeting to Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress.
Mako went to the Imperial Palace by car from the Akasaka Imperial Property where she lived before 4:30 pm on the 22nd.
As I passed through the Hanzomon Gate of the Imperial Palace, I was greeted with a smile on the face of the press and those who passed by.
Mako visited the "Gosho" where Their Majesties lived, and their Majesties received a greeting about their marriage from Mako.
Their Majesties' eldest daughter, Aiko, joined in from the middle, and at the end, the emperor's family's pet dog, Yuri, also appeared and had a peaceful discussion for over an hour.
In the marriage of the female royal family, one of the rituals is the "Asami ritual" in which the empress empress receives a farewell greeting, but since the ritual is not performed in Mako's marriage, the greeting is private. I was greeted.
Mako will celebrate her 30th birthday on the 23rd, and will visit the Emperor and his wife on the 25th of this month to greet them.
Then, on the morning of the 26th of this month, we will submit a marriage registration with Kei Komuro, and from the afternoon we will have a press conference at a hotel in Tokyo.
