What a beautiful night view of Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong. Victoria Harbour, of course, is named after Queen Victoria. The harbour itself is deep, sheltered, and in a strategic location on the South China Sea. The harbour is a big reason the area was established as a British Colony in 1841 and its development into a major trading centre.
Mölln is a small city of about 20 000 located in northern Germany. The Elbe-Lübeck Canal flows through the town, and there are eight small lakes that surround the city. It was founded in the 12th century and was a part of the Old Salt Route. Salt that was produced in the salt mines of Lower-Saxony was shipped to the Baltic Sea. Till Eulenspiegel, a legendary trickster known for exposing vices and provoking thought, is said to have lived in Mölln the last year of his life. He apparently died of the plague in 1350, but his existence has never been proven. Mölln has several monuments dedicated to him.
