AS tributes flood in for Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, the South Wales Argus looks back at the many visits he paid to Wales accompanying the Queen.
From the Senedd to St Woolos Cathedral, Ebbw Vale and Newport, the prince was an integral part of royal tours of the region and always received a warm welcome.
