Hong Kong
From Around the World in 257 Days in Hong Kong, China on Dec 09 '06
Day 1 – 4 Hong Kong.
Crazy city but fab. Soooooo busy. Advertising everywhere. Open 24/7. More people on the streets than Oxford Steet at Christmas. We went to Lantau Island – one of the other islands. Here we saw the world's tallest seated bronze outdoor Buddha. Went to a small fishing village – called Taio – really nice place (see pics). We also took the Wisdom Path – an outdoor replica of the centuries old Heart Sutra. In the evening we saw the 'Synthany of Lights' – not many pics of this as Jag's can't seem to hold the camera still.Went to the Peak to see Hong Kong from above – an old tram system that seems to run at 45 degrees up and down a mountain – scary. So that's a quick description of what we saw and did. Have a look at the pics.
