You can see that it's raining again

Getting to Lantau Island can be via car/bus or ferry.
We chose the former; since bus is easily accessible although it was initially hard in this wet season.
Lucky for us, we got there early in the morning

Still drizzling...and the skies are all misty


Inside the temple

Very intricate ceiling tiles


There is a cafeteria nearby which serves vegetarian food...

It was still really early; and there were only kueh (light local delicacies)



Very nice selection; the kueh are really unique:)


Jelly based; and the taste was really memorable!
The main square leading to the main temple

Somehow it reminds me of Shaolin Temple:D




The main attraction in Lantau Island....the Giant Buddha






The view from the top








The view was really amazing from the top!


Around the temple


The temple faces all the greens...hills, valleys

GREAT for morning view...breathtaking and unpolluted!!



Coincidentally, we bumped into a team of filmmakers; they were pretty apologetic when asking for our permission to allow them a couple more minutes for filming before we proceed to the Giant Buddha concourse area




Back at the foot of the flight of stairs to the Giant Buddha

Leading to another unique place..the Sutra Path


A quiet little path leading to the Sutra

It was a 20-30 minutes walk to the Sutra
And we were there!


Beautiful green hill facing the Sutra

The famous Sutra featured in Hong Kong series






This is the sutra that explains it all...

The true interpretation of all the sutras here
