The king and president will meet on Tuesday and Charles will meet his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in 1991. He is expected to address Congress, the first English monarch to do so since Elizabeth II.
The evening will culminate with a state dinner at the White House before the king and queen depart for New York on Wednesday.
