Day 91: Watching you...360.
What a beautiful day! Okay, there wasn't really much sunlight and we saw more clouds, but doing this trip on the way to the Giant Buddha on Lantau Island (along with the Ngong Ping 360 cable car trip) proved to be beautiful in its own way. When up on top, you could pretty much see the clouds being lower than the mountains (since I hear it's Hong Kong's second highest mountain), and the scenery, complete with the chanting of the monks in the nearby monastery, has made it all a wonderfully serene day.
Though I can't say the same about the night. LOL.
Then again, maybe I should have taken a photo of the queue to get onto the cable car - we were smart enough not to buy the "crystal cabin" (which was basically the same thing, except that it's a glass bottomed cable car). The queue for those extra dollars is just so frikkin' long! Not to mention it would have been a good time to laugh at those crystal cabin dumbasses...
The world's largest seated outdoor bronze Buddha. In Hong Kong! It's made of 202 bronze pieces, taking 3 years to complete. Hong Kong legend Anita Mui's final resting place is also located here. RIP Anita...
