579. Hong Kong | Big Buddha

The Big Buddha in Hong Kong is a typical tourist attraction. Most of my family members who have lived in Hong Kong all their lives have never visited because they see it as just for tourists. & on my numerous trips to Hong Kong in the past..we also never went here. But this time it was on my list of places to see. So on one of our final days in Hong Kong, we went. I remember it being an insanely hot and humid day, but it was nice and sunny and I had a wonderful time.

The best photos are the ones when you don't know it's being taken. My mom took this shot of me which I didn't know until later. I really love it.






There were a lot of cows roaming around the area.




Starting the long climb up. It looks like I have short hair here lol.


So it was actually really hot that day. At the top there was a little shop selling popsicles and pretty much everyone went to buy one immediately when they got to the top. I did as well of course.







Then we went off in search of the "Wisdom Path":

526. Day 12 | Big Buddha

I've been to Hong Kong many times before and have never visited the Big Buddha on Lantau Island until today! I went with my mom and sister. It was extremely hot today and the sun was shining the whole day. I wish it could have been a bit cooler, but otherwise it was the perfect day to visit. Here I am walking up the hundreds of steps. Photo taken by my sister.

After that, we went to the Wisdom Path which consisted of half cut tree trunks, with words of wisdom written on them. The view was beautiful.




One of my favourite things about visiting Hong Kong is the vast amounts of my favourite desserts. After dinner we went to a place for tofu dessert. I got it with grass jelly. So good!! I love grass jelly.

I think we are going to walk around and do some more shopping tomorrow. Then the next morning we are leaving Hong Kong (for a few days though!)..will reveal the destination when we are there. I can't wait!

Sorry for the quick update today. I'm sooo sleepy right now with no energy to do a more detailed post.
