The Prince of Wales visited President Fallieres in the Elysee Palace in April 1912. See query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=990DE4DD1E3CE633A... from April 3, 1912 Another article, from April 14, 1912, query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9907E4DF103AE633A... "PRINCE PUZZLES DANDIES.; Paris Exquisites Find Cut of Wales's Coats Varies from Day to Day. PARIS, April 13. -- Remembering that King Edward VII. was the arbiter elegantiarum for the French capital the present generation of Parisian dandies have been anxiously scrutinizing the young Prince of Wales since his arrival, with the result that just now they are in a curious dilemma."

I lived in paris in the days when you could get quite close to it - I was shooed away by a policeman from the actual pavement running along the wall - sacre bleu!

According to the Richmond Palladium and Sun-Telegram. March 28, 1922, Page 6, under cartoons chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn86058226/1922-03-28/ed-... The Prince of Wales was to be in Japan from April 12 until May 9, 1922. The Bridgeport Times and Evening Farmer., May 12, 1922, Magazine, Image 20 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn92051227/1922-05-12/ed-... has a photo which appears to be of the same occasion.

Judging from a photo on archive.org/details/princeofwaleseas00philrich/page/n223/... this was in Tokyo, at the "Imperial Cherry Garden Party."

Edward, Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) visited from 26 July to 5 August 1920 on behalf of his father, King George V, to thank Australians for the part they had played in World War I. Traveling by royal train Prince Edward visited Wallangarra; Warwick; Toowoomba; Gatton; Hendon; Clifton; Ipswich; Maryborough; Gympie; Nambour; Landsborough and Caboolture. Train platforms were decorated and the route was lined with ex-servicemen and loyal subjects. Special emphasis was given to meeting ex-servicemen, including visits to Amiens, Cottonvale, and Beerburrum Soldier Settlements; Anzac House and Rosemount and Enoggera military hospitals. A less strenuous visit than others, the Prince enjoyed the Ascot races (where he broke a track racing record) and a private visit to “Coochin Coochin” Homestead. Official functions included opening the Agricultural Show; laying the Brisbane City Hall foundation stone; dinner at the Queensland Club; Shakespearean, State and Governor’s Balls; State Banquet; a People’s Reception in the Botanic Gardens attended by 8000 children; a reception of 12,000 people in South Brisbane and a Citizens’ Garden Party at New Farm Park.4 The Prince was met with a ‘general air of rapturous joy’ with flags and banners flying from every building.
