Sonya SparksAugust 21, 2014Brand new adjacent shopping center with decent gift options and food & drink places. There's a new cable car option but it was extra $ so we didn't try it. The Buddha is cool and would go backUpvote3Downvote

Chechu CAugust 13, 2013La llegada en teleférico no tiene comparación con ningún otro medio de transporte. En Ngong Ping, Lantau Island, es un icono del turismo pero una cita obligada en tu viaje a HK. Paciencia, mucha gente

Brenda YaminMarch 21, 2016Bastante grande el general meal. Carga con tus propias servilletas y/o papel de baño porque no hay en el restaurante ni el baño. Cuidado con la soya Tung Chun, tiene toda la sal del universo.

Minnie SongJune 27, 2013청동 좌불로 올라가는 계단 입구의 매표소에서 사찰 음식 식권을 구입하면 부처님의 진신 사리를 볼 수 있는 전시관도 들어갈 수 있다. 이건 가장 저렴한 스낵 식권으로 먹을 수 있는 음식(30홍달). 맛은 그냥 그렇습니다.
