Ngong Ping (Chinese: 昂坪) is a highland in the western part of Lantau Island, Hong Kong. It hosts Po Lin Monastery and Tian Tan Buddha amidst the hills which is about 34 m tall. There are several hills nearby which are also an attraction to tourists. It is now the terminus of the cable car ride Ngong Ping 360 which travels to Tung Chung. New facilities and tourist attractions have opened including the Ngong Ping Village, Walking with the Buddha, the Monkey’s Tale Theatre and Ngong Ping Tea House. The second highest peak of Hong Kong, Lantau Peak, is at its southeast. I simply love this amazing NGONG PING 360 cableway
