Did you know that mountains have an international day? The United Nations General Assembly has designated 11 December, from 2003 onwards, as International Mountain Day. The day aims to create awareness about the importance of mountains to life, to highlight the opportunities and constraints in mountain development and to build partnerships that will bring positive change to the world’s mountains and highlands. - in: https://www.internationaldays.org

Last year, on that day, postcrossers in Taiwan had a meeting.

With a 3742 meter peak, Mt.Nanhu is the fifth highest mountain in Taiwan and the highest peak in Taroko National Park. Historically, the mountain range is part of the traditional territory for Atayal tribe, one of the Taiwanese aboriginal tribes. Due to its height and glacier cirque, Mt.Nanhu is dubbed as the most majestic mountain in Taiwan. - in: https://medium.com
