We tried the crystal cabin the first time we visit Ngong Ping, it was amazing and scary experience! LOL

Ngong Ping Cable Car






Ngong Ping Village

Definitely not the replica, this village has a lot of shops, restaurant, cafes, souvenir shops. Well it serves as stop shop/area of the 25 minutes cable car ride.



The Giant Buddha

Also known as Tian Tan Buddha statue, it was erected in 1993. Sitting 34 metres high and facing north to look over the Chinese people, this majestic bronze Buddha draws pilgrims from all over Asia.

To reach the giant Buddha you have to climb 268 steps! We did not climb last time we visit NP, so yes this is it! Aja!!! 





Finally! ^^


Ni Hao photo bombers! 

With this stunning view, it's really worth the climb!
