With enchanting beaches and quaint fishing villages crafting its shores, ancient monasteries and temples nestling among its lush mountains, Lantau is truly a picturesque getaway from the metropolis. Focusing on the key landmarks of Lantau, this is an ideal escapade from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Take a 25-minute ride on the Ngong Ping 360 cable car to enjoy some of the best views of Lantau, a visually spectacular ride of ever-changing vistas of the landscapes. You will then visit one of the world's largest outdoor bronze Buddha statues at the tranquil Po Lin Monastery.
One of the highlights of the island is the historical Tai O Fishing Village, with houses on stilts, and tiny shops and shrines dotted throughout – this humble village is still popular for its dried seafood and traditional way of life.
