We are still on our second day in Hong Kong but we are now on the second part of this exciting day. For those who haven’t read my other two posts on this wonderful trip, read them first: Hong Kong Arrival, Hong Kong City Tour & Lantau Island Anyway, as I said on my previous post, we woke up early and made sure that we’re not late for this tour that we booked via Octopus Travel. Right afte we visited the famous Fishing Village, we immediately headed to the Big Buddha… and when they say big, it really is BIG! Humongous is the right term!
This statue is the world’s largest Buddha statue, by using bronze, it’s 34 metres tall and weighs 250 tons, empowered in December 1993.
It costs nothing to reach the Big Buddha, however, one has to purchase a vegetarian coupon for entry into the 3 levels exhibition hall beneath the Big Buddha.”
