On Saturday, we were lucky enough to visit several of Hong Kong's tourist attractions: Big Buddha, Stanley Market, and The Peak. Our favorite was Big Buddha. This is a huge statue of a Buddha on Ngong Ping, Lantau Island. The Po Lin Monastery is nearby.
As we were dropped off by bus, we were able to see the Buddha on the top of the mountain. As we walked closer, there was small market of souvenir shops. We walked up 250+ steps to reach the Buddha. At the top, we were able to see great views of the monastery.
We also experienced the Hong Kong Light Show which involves the buildings of the skyline shooting lasers and lights off the roof to music. We also went took a boat tour at night to see the city from the water.
