Going to Lantau Island was easy. It was just similar route going to Disney but instead of stopping @ Sunny bay station, we had to stop @ Tung Chung Station. From there, we had to ride the Cable Car to the island. The whole cable car experience was way better in Ocean park's one because it was a 25-minute ride. You could see spectacular views of rolling grasslands, panoramic vistas of North Lantau Country Park and South China Sea and Hongkong's international airport.
Plus, in the island itself, you could catch a glimpse of the mighty Tian Tan Buddha Statue, the world's largest seated outdoor bronze Buddha.
** As a Catholic myself, I witnessed how the place became a tourist destination at the same time a place of refuge for those people who believe in Buddha. They peacefully knelt down and prayed in silence while tourist like me took pictures and got amazed with the views. That for me was amazing how people tried to respect each other. Very nice experience, indeed.
