A tattoo is not just about a great design that adorns your body. Most tattoos reveal a lot about the personality and character of the wearer and have a deep, personal meaning for them.

A mountain tattoo has an incredible number of different meanings. One of the main reasons why some people choose this tattoo design is because they want to show off their adventurous side.

Mountains, as large and intimidating as they are, can also represent the power and strength of the wearer and the ability to overcome the problems in life. It doesn't matter whether it's an earthquake, fire or other natural disaster - mountains can survive anything!
