10 Ways to Make the Most of Your Trip to Vibrant Hong Kong
Take a Glass-Bottomed Gondola Ride to See the Big Buddha
The largest outdoor seated Buddha in the world is a popular attraction among religious pilgrims and tourists of all faiths and backgrounds.
To get the most out of your trip to see the Big Buddha, travel on the Ngong Ping 360 Skyrail cable car that offers beautiful views of Lantau Island on all four sides.
Get Spiritual at a Local Temple
Hong Kong is a modern, cosmopolitan city, but just under the surface there are deep-rooted cultural and religious traditions and customs. While religious buildings of virtually every faith can be found in this international city, most visitors are interested in visiting Chinese temples.
One of the largest and busiest temples, Wong Tai Sin Temple honors a shepherd boy who was reported to have healing powers and came to be viewed as a sort of god. If you are into fortune telling, this particular temple is a popular place to have your fortune read.
One of Hong Kong’s oldest temples, Man Mo Temple, is a Taoist temple dedicated to the gods of literature and is another popular temple for tourists to visit. While these two are a couple of our favorites, there are many temples scattered throughout the city.
From those that are budget-friendly to those that are luxuriously stocked to those that are conveniently located, these are the best Orlando family resorts.
Take in the View from Victoria Peak
One of the most visited spots in Hong Kong, and also the highest point on Hong Kong Island, the Peak offers stunning panoramic views of the city. You can reach the summit by taking the historic Peak Tram up the mountain’s steep incline.
Alternatively, burn some calories on your way to the top by hiking or biking The Peak Circle Walk.
