It was definitely a great opportunity for me have this access to take a tour around the G8 Summit venue and get lots of information regarding the preparation for the summit. Germany police security gave a special name
“Kavala” for this security task. Kavala is greek work which mean an island with many white houses and since
Heligendamm venue for the G8 Summit also has many white buildings they gave it this special name. It’s like America gave the name Operation Desert Strom for Iraq Gulf War.
Well the Group of Eight (G8) is an international forum for the governments of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States. Together, these countries represent about 65% of the world economy. The group's activities include year-round conferences and policy research, culminating with an annual summit meeting attended by the heads of government of the member states. The European Commission is also represented at the meetings.
Each year, member states of the G8 take turns assuming the presidency of the group. The holder of the presidency sets the group's annual agenda and hosts the summit for that year. The presidency for 2007 belongs to Germany, which will host the 33rd G8 summit in Heiligendamm from June 6 to June 8.

Like the German security force gave the name‘Kavala’ for this speical task of securing the venue, this place is truly glorified by white beautiful building of one of the world’s luxsurious resort. It was astonishing to learn how much effort security has put for this task Kavala. Thirteen kilometers of fences with brab wire and highly pretrol by police around the clock. No allowed to carry out any demonstration 200 meters outside this fence. No air traffice is allowed to zoom through the sky, 500 meters from the sea is net so that no swimer is allowed to come. All people need to go through heavy security checks, even media has limited access and they are specified only to attend scelected program of the G8. Well this security measure they take is simply beyoned we can imagine.
This is Konzerthaus, new building designed by Karl Friedrich Schinkel to replace the Nationaltheater built from 1800–02 by Karl Gotthard Langhans, which was burnt to the ground in 1817. The conception of the Konzerthaus integrates the remains of Langhan's rectangular building and adds a higher, wider, gabled solidium in the center, complete with an ionic columned hall projecting at the front. Following its destruction in the Second World War, the building was initially only made safe, and the systematic restoration of the original design only began in 1979. Since its reopening in 1984 it has served not as a theatre, but as a concert hall. 
Above four pictues are of Gendarmenmarkt which is one of the most beautiful squares in Europe – we were told that this is a must for every tourist who visit Berlin.

Berlin Town Hall, now the official seat of the mayor of Berlin, was constructed in the style of the north Italian High Renaissance from 1861–69, according to plans by H.F. Waesemann.The architecture of the tower, however, is reminiscent of the bell tower of the cathedral in the French city of Laon. Because of its colour, the imposing building is known colloquially as the "Rotes Rathaus" or "Red Town Hall". In 1879, the exterior was decorated with the "Stony Chronicle", a terracotta frieze on the first floor (36 plates, each 6m in length) showing scenes from the history of Berlin. The building was seriously damaged in the Second World War; following its reconstruction from 1951–58, it became the seat of the East Berlin magistrate, while the city council of the West resided in the town hall in the district of Schöneberg. After reunification, the reigning mayor moved back to Berlin Town Hall. In front of the building there is a sculpture by Fritz Kremer (1958), which symbolizes Berliners rebuilding their city.

My first dip was one heck lot of experience and I will never ever forget its chillness down my spine. I was very excited from the very beginning when we were taken to Heligendamm where G8 Summit is going to be held. After visiting the place we headed toward the Baltic Sea and couldn’t wait to take my first dip. 
The massive Doberaner Minster (successively built up between 1294 and 1368) is surrounded by the expansive grounds of a historic Cistercian monastery, founded in 1186. Its inner realms are considered to be the oldest designed parks and gardens in Mecklenburg. Discover impressive buildings like the brewery, charnel-house, barns and craftsmen houses and, of course, the Minster itself with its original medieval fittings, alters and sepulchers.
