Cape Town - On Friday Prince Harry followed in Princess Diana's footsteps when he walked through a minefield during his visit to Angola.
His Royal Highness joined The Halo Trust – the largest landmine clearance NGO – as he walked along the same street where his mother was famously pictured in 1997.
The duke also went on the visit the same spot as his mother, which is now a road named after her and toured the Princess Diana orthopaedic unit which treats victims of landmine explosions, reports the Press Association.
His last meeting of the day was a particularly special moment as he met with landmine victim Sandra Tigica.
Twenty-two years ago, Sandra met Princess Diana during her visit to an orthopaedic workshop where Sandra was being measured for a new prosthetic leg.
The picture of Diana and Sandra sitting side-by-side under a fig tree captured the hearts of many.

The Duke of Sussex met the now 38-year-old at a reception at the British Ambassadors Residence in Luanda.
