Former Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev addresses a news conference in the Berlin City Hall November 9, 2009. As the highlight of a 5-million euro ($7.4 million) celebration marking the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, a 1.5-km (one-mile) long segment of the Wall will stand for two days along its original route in front of the Brandenburg Gate to the Potsdamer Platz. The row of 1,000 20-kg dominos standing 1.5 meters apart -- painted in bright colors by school children and rising 2.5 meters high -- will be toppled at the end of a gala ceremony as a symbolic tribute to the collapse of the Wall 20 years earlier.
