Dame Silvia Cartwright and the Governing Mayor of Berlin, Klaus Wowereit, in front of Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. Mr Wowereit and Dame Silvia walked through the Brandenburg Gate as part of her official State Visit to Germany. It was the first time a New Zealand Governor-General walked through the gate, which used to be in no-man's land during the cold war and is now a symbol of German reunification.
