Hongjian Mountain is one of Xiamen’s most under-the-radar spots. This is a raw, trail-based climb that takes about an hour to the top. The path is steep in places and marked by red ropes left by previous hikers—so pay attention! But once you’re up there? Total peace, fresh mountain air, and a view that feels like your own secret reward.
The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world. Most of all, it’s a testament to the resilience and determination of the Hungarian people – and a reminder to all of us to keep striving for fairness, equality and the rule of law.
