Hong Kong 25-29 March 2010 [Day 2]

Our main itinerary for day two was the Big Buddha at Po Lin Monastery which is located on Ngong Ping Plateau, on Lantau Island, Hong Kong.

after breakfast... we took a train (which is called MTR over there) to Tung Chung MTR Station.

when we arrived at Tung Chung, there's a shopping mall called CityGate Outlets which has many outlet stores... probably u can get some cheap stuffs there.

And from there we took a cable car up the Ngong Ping plateau... it was about a 5.7 km ride... which is quite long... and our cable car cabin was Crystal cabin which the base of the cable car was transparent so that u can see everything below you clearly... but of course u have to pay a little more and u can save yourself from the long queue and waiting time.

U may check out the Cable Car information Here!

its rather thrilling at first...
