Prince William and Kate Middleton were received with a very warm welcome and were given traditional Chitrali hats, adorned with peacock feathers as they landed. Soon after the pictures circulated on the internet the twitter again was flooded with tweets of how similar Kate and (late) Princess Diana looked when she visited Chitral in 1991.
