Queen Mary of Denmark COP31 visit to Antalya, Digi Mart USA News (Antalya, Turkey): Queen Mary of Denmark (54) arrived in the Turkish coastal city of Antalya on Sunday evening, November 8. She will take part in the UN climate summit COP31 there until November 10.
Her official program began Monday with a boat trip in Antalya. At the harbor, she was greeted with a special surprise.
Antalya is typically known for marriage proposals, often marked by the romantic message “Marry Me” with a heart between the two words.
In honor of the Danish queen, the hosts had slightly altered the sign. Instead of “MARRY,” it read “MARY.” The name was adapted on the spot and completed with a heart made of red flowers, a gesture that made the official welcome special.
Afterward, Mary headed out onto the Mediterranean. Accompanied by representatives of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), she learned about the effects of climate change on the region.
The focus was on rising sea temperatures and their impact on fragile ecosystems and on people along the Mediterranean coast.
From the conservation organization, Mary also learned about a project that recycles recovered ghost nets into sunglasses. She was even given a pair as a gift.
The schedule also included a visit to the ancient open-air theater in the city of Perge, where she received detailed insights into the historic site and its archaeological excavations.
She was particularly interested in the ancient remains and repeatedly crouched during her tour to view the ruins up close. On Monday afternoon, the official part of the climate summit begins for Queen Mary.
At 2:40 p.m. local time she is scheduled to be received at the COP31 venue.
At 3:00 p.m., she is set to meet Australia’s Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, at the Australian pavilion. The discussion will center on the strategic partnership between Denmark and Australia, particularly in climate and the green energy transition.
The meeting also carries a personal dimension for Mary, who was born in Australia and remains closely connected to her homeland.
