Lantau Island - 7/21/2013

We took a family trip on Sunday out to Lantau Island, a large island East of Hong Kong. We took the gondola to the Tian Tan Buddha, and also explored the fishing village of Tai O. It made for a great day trip!

The gondola to the Tian Tan Buddha was gorgeous! It was very long - 5.7km in all!


We rode in a gondola with a glass floor!


Near the base of the Buddha. Some things never change.








A gate near the Big Buddha.


The small fishing village of Tai O. It must have been very quiet at one point, but today it sees many tourists. Still, it was a neat place to visit.


Just a shark.





On our return gondola. Below is the Hong Kong International Airport.
