Can you spot the cliff climbers? 🧗 Fact: This 495-meter-tall monolith, named for its resemblance to a crouching lion. It’s the best place to take in sweeping views of the Hong Kong cityscape, offering a 180-degree travel snapshot of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island across the famous Victoria Harbor. The mountain became an emblem of Hong Kong in the 1970s thanks to popular TV show and eponymous song “Below the Lion Rock,” which depicted the lives of the city’s versatile residents. The term “the Spirit of Lion Rock” was coined to symbolize the perseverance and solidarity of the city. #hongkong #hiking #mountains #lionrock
