Was in Hong Kong during the Lunar New Year holiday weekend and went with Mei Lan to the temple on Lantau Island to observe how the locals celebrate the New Year. Was an interesting trip, well planned by ML. We took the MTR from Causeway Bay to the last station Tung Chung and from there took the scenic cable car ride all the way up the mountain to the temple area. Along the way the scenery was really beautiful, but slightly marred by the fact that it was very hazy.
We had a vegetarian meal at the temple (which is supposedly for good luck) before ascending a small hill to the vantage point where the buddha (bottom picture) sits.
That night we went across the harbour to Kowloon to take pictures of the Hong Kong skyline. Again.. if not for the hazy conditions it would have turned out much better.
