Lion Rock, a mecca for climbers and hikers, is hailed as an emblem of Hong Kong's tenacious spirit, according to a video released by China Global Television Network (CGTN) on Monday.
The mountain has steep cliffs at the north end of the Kowloon Peninsula, posing a dangerous challenge to climbers. Once reaching to the top, the overwhelming presence of skyscrapers is left below, reminding people that perseverance leads to opportunity.
Atop Lion Rock, Hong Kong Island unfolds before their eyes, with a spectacular view of Kowloon and beyond. Climbers who make it up here never feel small. For they know that, be it yesterday, today, or tomorrow, there will be a wider horizon as long as they keep climbing.
Lion Rock became Hong Kong's iconic mountain symbol in 1972 when it was featured in a television series about hard-working common people in the city "Below Lion Rock."

China remains the most important part of Apple's supply chain, said the company's CEO Tim Cook on Friday.
Cook made the remarks ahead of his meeting with Ren Hongbin, chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) in Beijing.
"It remains the most important part of our supply chain," he said.
Cook said that the CCPIT has always been Apple's crucial partner.
"We're so happy to reengage and talk about moving forward and the opportunities in front of both of us," said Cook.
The CEO reaffirmed the importance of China and expressed willingness to visit China again in the future.
Cook embarked on his first visit to China this year, earlier this month, the latest of his many trips to the country in recent years, as a testament to Apple's close ties with the Chinese market.
His Beijing trip followed a visit to Chengdu, capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province, earlier this week. Cook is expected to attend the China Development Forum 2026, scheduled to be held in Beijing on March 22-23.
