was soooo hungry when we reached the Po Lin Monastery for vegetarian lunch... Our table had so many people-12! as compared to the other tables.. especially the table beside us only had about half of ours..
Sat beside 2 CUHK student helpers- Thomas and Jessica.. very very nice people! Jessica was very friendly and enthusiastic to know about others.. Thomas was very interested about Taiwan~ :)
Outside the temple...
very nice carvings along the wall of the temple...- Yx, SH, me, Thunder and Irene...
with the guys- Shawn and Jimmy at the bottom of the stairs leading to the Giant Buddha~
at the top! breathtaking view! and the air was soooo much cleaner and cooling! very nice! worth all the 280 steps I'd climbed!
very windy.. love the shades of green everywhere! and I was in a green T~ blend with nature :)
The Giant Buddha!~which faces Mainland China for political reason instead of facing its normal direction (which I don't remember.. )
The looong and steep staircase UP!
At the bottom again...
In Ngong Ping Village.. where they sell a lot of Chinese stuff.. like chopsticks.. very nice chopsticks... (such a funny picture! HaHa)
After the tour ended, we proceeded on to Tung Chung where there is a whole building of Outlet Shops! like Nike Outlet, Espirit Outlet, etc. Labels: Hong Kong
