Principality of Hutt River Province



On 25th September 2011 we left Australia for a brief, but very pleasurable visit to the Principality of Hutt River Province.















The Border Gate











On arrival we were greeted by HRH Prince Leonard who took us on a personal tour of the Principality

Government Office and Post Office where we received our border stamps and visitor visas









The sculpture of Prince Leonard's head was shaped by axe by an international sculptor during his visit to the Principality, prior to carving the work of art. After completing the work he presented it to the prince as a gift. The knight in the background was also a gift and is the work of an Australian sculptor.
