He was joined by his wife, Queen Camilla, and his sister, Princess Anne, along with her husband, Sir Timothy Laurence. The royals were seen speaking to each other after being greeted by the Archbishop of Canterbury elect, Dame Sarah Mullally.
Charles looked dapper in his signature tweed coat, while the Queen looked elegant in brown.
It comes just days after the King’s son spent nearly a week in London for his trial against the publisher of the Daily Mail.
Charles was in London for the day, however, he did not meet Harry.
He attended a reception in support of Indonesian conservation efforts at Lancaster House, next door to his Clarence House residence, on Wednesday morning.
The King was joined by the president of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, and the two were pictured smiling broadly together at an audience afterwards at Clarence House.
Charles, who was seen sheltering under his own large black umbrella as he departed, joked about the rainy downpours in the capital as he shook hands with the president.
He prompted laughter as he remarked to the Indonesian leader: “Sorry about the weather.”
Charles and the president enjoyed a cup of tea as they met representatives and members of the Peusangan Elephant Conservation Initiative and other bodies in the Grand Hall.
The King, who was away in Scotland at the start of the week when Harry arrived back in the UK, conducted his engagements just two miles from where his son gave evidence.
But according to the Press Association, the monarch is believed not to have met up with Harry during his latest trip, with Charles following the general principle that a sovereign should steer clear of any active legal proceedings.
The last time father and son met, for the first time in 19 months, was last September at Clarence House.
