Hongkong Trip 2013: Day 4

On the day 4, we head to Lautau Island.


All you need to do is to take their MTR and alight at Tung Chung MTR, Exit B.


Once you exit the place, you will see a big shopping centre, Citygate Outlet.
That is actually a factory outlet.
The factory outlet mall contain most of the brand. I went into Kate Spade, it is freaking cheap please.

But my destination is not the factory mall.
We wanted to get to Tian Tan Buddha Statue at Po Lin Monastery.
All you need to to do is to follow the direction on the signboard, which lead to the building behind Citygate.
You will have to take the escalator up and buy ticket for the cable car.


We are quite suey la. The queue is damn long!
Good thing is the queue move very quickly.
There is two types of cable car, the normal one and the crystal kind.
Crystal kind is because you can see the bottom of the cable car.
The part where you are stepping on is a translucent glass which allows you to see the bottom of the scenery.
Kinda pointless.
So my mum and us we choose the normal one.


Even though there is so many counter, not all are open!










when we exit the cable car stop, there is a village theme park.
All you need to do is to walk through this park and we will reach Po Lian Monastery.





This is actually a wishing tree. 
You have to spend an amount of money in the shop and you are given the wooden stick.
Write on it and hang it on the tree.
I didnt try it. 


Getting closer to the buddha.




Here we are! Po lian Monastery.



We have to climb this stairs to reach the temple.
So we climb! damn tiring!


When we reach, the buddha is huge! We get to see the buddha close up.


View from the temple is magnificent. Very very pretty!
It is worth the climb.



Walk around and pray. Then we head back down.
We bought meal voucher and we get to exchange food at another side of the temple, which is below.




And we took the cable car back.
Thank goodness, we left in time before the crowd came again.

We left for Avenue of Stars. 
Avenue of Stars starts at 8pm, but get there before 8pm to get a good spot.
Alight at Tsim sha Tsui MTR, and Exit J.







We ended our night with Mcdonalds as dinner.
Their Mcdonalds is damn cheap. SGD3 bucks for a meal.
They doesn't have upsize, so you can forget about it. HAHA.

Day 5 will be on Ocean Theme Park.
Stay tune.

I know I haven't been blogging often due to working.
I have to wake up at 530am everyday so i sleep at 10pm sharp.
I think I am getting used to it already.
Good night guys! Time to head to bed.
