Lion Rock is an iconic mountain in
#Hongkong, with the shape of a lying lion. Often the name is used to talk about the hard working and persevering mentality of locals, also coined as "Lion Rock Spirit".
It rises up behind the dense housing estates of
#Kowloon and watches over the city.
The mountain range that Lion Rock is a part of separates the New Territories from the Kowloon peninsula, and is host to many monkeys.
At the same time, because it is so easily accessible it is a very popular hiking location and of course offers great views. But the steep cliffs are not for the faint of heart and the elevation should not be underestimated, particularly during summer.
