Hong Kong – China Day 8

Nov 17

This morning, Uncle Albert came to our hotel to meet and escort us to Tung Chung. We took the bus then MTR to get the full experience of public transportation in HK. In Tung Chung, we had dim sum with several family members on PoPo’s side. It was nice meeting new family members and seeing familiar ones.

After brunch, we took a cable car ride to Ngong Ping. Ngong Ping is a highland in the western part of Lantau Island, Hong Kong. It hosts Po Lin Monastery and Tian Tan Buddha amidst the hills which is about 34m tall. There are several hills nearby which are also an attraction to tourists. The cable car ride was about 20 minutes long each way.

This guy was roaming around randomly. Nat was nervous to get too close

For dinner, the four of us split off from the group and met David’s family at CoCo Kitchen (hot pot) for dinner in Mongkok.

After dinner, we walked through Ladies night market again to pick up a few more souvenirs.

Favorite part of the day

All of us: the cable car ride to Ngong Ping
