There's plenty to see while on your cable car journey. Here are some of the top attractions -- all of which you can visit after your trip as well.
Ngong Ping Village
Located in Hong Kong’s Lantau Island, Ngong Ping is a man-made village located on a highland. Its landscape is replete with hills and mountains. As the main tourist point after the Ngong Ping cable car ride, Ngong Ping has been designed with classic Chinese elements in its architecture, eateries and cafes and village layout. The prime attraction here is the towering Tian Tan Buddha statue.
Tian Tan Buddha
The massive bronze statue of Buddha is located right on top of Mount Muk Yue, just about a 10-minute walk from the village. Due to its towering height, at about 34 m, the Buddha statue is easily visible from the cable cars. Guests can also climb up 268 steps to go to the top and see the statue up close, while also enjoying the picturesque view of Ngong Ping.
Po Lin Monastery
True to its name, the Po Lin Monastery is a peace of peace and serenity. It is situated on the Ngong Ping plateau and has a direct view of the Tian Tan Buddha from its front. The first thing one would notice about the monastery is its elaborate, traditional architecture; notice the decor, which comprises dragons, phoenixes and other animal designs.
Wisdom Path
From the top in your cable car, you’ll notice the Lantau hiking trail that is prominently characterized by tall columns -- this is the Wisdom Path landscape installation. Comprising 38, 8-10 m wooden columns, a unique thing to look out for is the inscription of verses from the Heart Sutra in original Sanskrit.
