Tian Tan Buddha Hong Kong

#meethongkong An amazing location of pure serenity. There are a number of ways to reach this incredible location, bus, taxi, but best of all the glass bottom cable car, which begins its journey from Tung Chung, Lantau Island. It pays to go early because there can be huge queues for cable car, especially on a Tuesday, but the wait is well worth it. The view from the cable is amazing as you go over the bays at up to 300 ft, after which you go between the mountains, then as if he jumped out of the mountains, the Buddha appears as if by magic. Upon reaching the venue, you will find there is plenty to do and see. There are many restaurants and food outlets, along with drinks a plenty (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). As you walk through the impressive gateway to the main site, you will see highly cleansed cows wandering freely around, plus many Buddhist Monks who are quite happy to have a photograph taken with you. Then comes the 260 steps up to the main attraction, The Big Buddha, the daunting bronze figure seems to come alive as you get nearer, as though beckoning you, makes you very different inside, quite unexplainable. When you reach the top you can walk around the Buddha, you can also go inside, within the Buddha. Please kindly observe that NO PHOTOGRAPHY IS ALLOWED INSIDE HERE, as it is sacred, PLEASE RESPECT THIS. If ever you go to Hong Kong, the Big Buddha is an absolute must. Highly recommended. #mytripvlog #境外遊 #throwback

Tian Tan Buddha

Exploring Hong Kong’s epic Tian Tan Buddha is a bucket-list moment for any traveler 🙌. Perched on Lantau Island and towering over lush mountains, this iconic statue is all about jaw-dropping views, spiritual vibes, and a little bit of stairway cardio. Must-See Spot: 🌄 Tian Tan Buddha Address: Ngong Ping Rd, Lantau Island, Hong Kong Opening Hours: 10:00–17:30 (open every day!) You’ll need to climb 268 steps to reach the Buddha itself—fair warning, but the scenic payoff at the top is absolutely worth it. The climb isn’t too intense and you can stop to admire the clouds, fog, and panoramic nature views surrounding the statue. Try visiting early in the day or right before closing to dodge tourist crowds and catch some dramatic weather shifts—one moment it’s sunny, the next it’s mysterious mist! Practical tips: – Wear comfy shoes for the climb. Those stairs are no joke! – Bring a lightweight jacket; the weather can change super fast, swinging from sunny to cloudy and rainy. – If you want peaceful vibes, time your visit for weekdays or early hours. – Great spot for close-up architecture shots! – You can grab vegetarian food from the nearby monastery—it’s tasty and cheap. Getting there: Hop on the MTR to Tung Chung station, then board the Ngong Ping 360 cable car for killer views (or take a local bus if you want to save cash).
