Prince William laid a wreath at Yad Vashem, met Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Reuven Rivlin, and was set to attend a football charity's event on his first full day in Jerusalem.

Here are some of the more memorable images from his trip so far.

During the Yad Vashem trip, William was gifted a kippah from the Chief Rabbi that carries an inscription on the inside.

"Every name, photograph and memory recorded here is a tragic reminder of the unimaginable human cost of the Holocaust and the immense loss suffered by the Jewish people," the Duke wrote in Yad Vashem's guestbook.
