As much as we enjoyed the destination, it was a day to enjoy the journey. After another trip on the MTR (to the Tung Chung station, exit B), we connected to the Ngong Ping... more

It's a commanding view of the island from there. The Ngong Ping Village nearby leading to the Buddha is also a beautiful place... more
