Berlin Prepares For 25th Fall Of The Wall Anniversary

BERLIN, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 05: People stroll along a still-standing portion of the original Berlin Wall called the East Side Gallery among lamps that will be used in an upcoming light installation to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Wall on November 5, 2014 Berlin, Germany. The city of Berlin will commemorate the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9 with an installation of 6,800 of the lamps coupled with illuminated balloons along a 15km route where the Wall once ran and divided the city into capitalist West and communist East. The fall of the Wall in 1989 was among the most powerful symbols of the revolutions that swept through the communist countries of Eastern Europe and heralded the end of the Cold War.
