Welcome to my Blog!

My last visit for the half day tour was to go up LanTau Island (Da Yu Shan)

To visit this island, we need to take a ferry. The boat routes around the island, travelling pass the airport. They say during this route, you could see Dolphins, especially pinks ones, jumping around. But due to the stormy weather we did not see any of it

 

Stormy Weather:(

 
 
No Dolphins… O and thats the cable cars

At last we arrive here, board a bus, and went up the long winding hill, to visit the great Buddha. This one of the motivation why asians, or in particular Buddhist religions come here, to pray for peace and safety, and to take a look at the majestic statue of the Buddha.

 
What a big Incense pot!

Before the climb, we had a vegetarian meal that was delicious and healthy. This is a special meal that is provided to every visitor. And then, they say you should exercise after eating… So I went up the steps!

 
And finally I reach the top ! Great view here.

A closer view of the Buddha statue. This is at least ten storeys high.

After this climb, we walk pass some visitor’s shopping area, and we travelled down to mainland by cable car. Actually there’s a shortcut up. That is to take the cable car up, and it should take us less than 10 minutes. Whereas we took the long way up, at the pier, the ferry route, the bus route. Well it’s worth.

This is the map. We started from top right, travelled to Tai O at the bottom left. Board a bus form there and went to the center of the island.

Back from the cable car, we had our own shopping spree at the Factory outlet at Tung Chung MTR station. Nice shopping mall for spending tourists like me! Big brands at cheap prices…
