World Chess Championship 2013 Preparation: There is not much news coming from World Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand. However, the challenger, World No. 1 Magnus Carlsen has posted interesting photos and even a video on his Facebook page about his preparation for the 'Big Match' to be held in Chennai from November 6-26. Carlsen is preparing with the help of Grandmasters Jon Ludvig Hammer and Laurent Fressinet at the Kragerø Resort.



What's the special reason Carlsen has chosen this resort to prepare for the World Chess Championship in Chennai? The beautiful town of Kragerø is surrounded by islands and skerries and provides a beautiful experience of coastal life and culture of Southern Norway.
