    I visited the park solo, and while the place was massive and the cable car rides were fun, I couldn’t help but feel a bit let down. The park wasn’t crowded, which made it easy to explore, but honestly, it felt really outdated. I think t’s clear the park is in serious need of a renovation...

    Great place to spend an hour away from traffic. Tranquil and serene and picturesque do not do it full justice. It was perfect after a jarring day on the hop on hop off bus, in taxis and ferries. Perfect way to mellow out at the end of a busy Hong Kong tourist attraction day.

    I visited the Big Buddha on Lantau Island, and, if you can endure the steps (268 of them), the huge bronze seated statue does not disappoint. I went in the morning, (to avoid lines at the cable car), but, there was still about a 20-minute wait. It's warm and muggy in Hong Kong in late September, but thankfully, the staircase is bounded by greenery on both sides which provided much needed shade/relief for overheated visitors.

    Before you reach the steps, you're gonna past a slew of souvenir shops/snack bars.

    The cable car ride up is just as impressive, (and lasts around 20-25 minutes), though, each carriage allows only 4-6 people. And, they are not air-conditioned. (Open windows are your ventilation). The cable car station is an easy walk from the Tung Chung subway stop.

    FYI: take an umbrella, I used mine to keep the sun off my head/neck. (Or if it rains).

    What a surprise to find such a beautiful Nunnery to spend 2 hours resting and enjoying the amazing serenity in a city that always runs fast. From the Nunnery through to the gardens it's a place you go to just relax. For me I read my book and had coffee. Early visits before 10.30am is advised if you want it to yourself.

    Excellent hike with stunning views of the peninsula and bay. The hike itself is not too difficult, you just need some sturdy footwear and be sure to take enough water. Also, those that dislike stairs are probably better off finding a different trail. Once you have made it up to the top, you can continue hiking down all the way to Big Wave Beach, which makes it about a 3-3.5 hours round trip in total, and if the weather is nice, gives you the opportunity to take a dip in the sea at Big Wave Beach.

    This was a nice find in the middle of the city. It's not very big but it was relaxing walking around the park in the shade. Lots of seats also. You can easily tick this off your list when exploring the city.

    Took a lot of photos. The view is scenic. Walked through out the island and in the showroom. Really hot, suggest that you bring an umbrella.

    This is the monastery (free entry) at Ngong Ping Village. It one of the major attractions near the Ngong Ping Village on Lantau Island along with the Big Buddha. It was built in the early 20th-century and makes for a nice place to visit for 10-15 minutes as part of time spent at Ngong Ping. Opening hours are 9am to 6pm daily now.

    The temple grounds includes two halls with important buddha statues (Five Dhyani Buddhas), beautiful and colourful exterior. The giant Reunification Cauldron is nice, as is the area landscaping, large tall trees providing shade and overall peaceful environs. There is a vegetarian restaurant at the monastery as well for those interested.

    Note: To visit Po Lin and the other attractions at the Ngong Ping Village, you can use the popular Ngong Ping 360 cable car (25 min) from Tung Chung, public buses 23 (Tung Chung), 21 (Tai O) and 2 (Mui Wo) or taxi.

    This was a nice relaxing park while exploring Kowloon. It was nice to see flamingos in the park, not a usual sight. Also an aviary to see different birds.

    When you arrive walk up through the town to the beach on the other side, it is only a short walk and the beach is very quiet and has a couple of small restaurants providing tapas type food. You can hire a deck chair and umbrella for a quiet snooze. Take your swimming gear as there are changing rooms and showers available. Come back to the main square for your evening meal as it is a bit more lively.

    Even though it seems far from the city center, this beach is easily accessible as there’s lots of buses going to it. We decided to take the mtr to Ocean Park and walk by the coastal road pass Deep Water Bay before we reach Repulse Bay. It’s a very easy beautiful walk that takes around an hour or so. Repulse Bay is located quite urban and yet has that secluded beach feel. It has a maintained beach toilet for cleaning up after your swim in the beach. There’s restaurants by the beach and an arcade where you can buy water or sundries to eat by the beach. It’s family friendly too.

    Came here with our 4 year old and really happy. Not too big to walk around but plenty to see. Lovely knowing seeing the range of animals was a free activity and a lovely greenhouse of plants. Beautiful area to walk around and enjoyed a couple of hours here. We then walked to the peak tram from here.

    The walled little park is located in a much larger park, which you can reach almost all the way to from downtown Kowloon by bus 5 or 28.

    The picturesque pavilions, stone arrangements, small sculptures, and round doorways almost resemble the interiors of famous Japanese gardens.

    Look forward to taking some good photos, but don't plan to spend more than 1 hour there. The park can be seen quickly.

    While traveling this side of the Island, we made a little halt there, which I liked. It was seen on the same voyage as Stanley and Repulse Bay. It worked nicely as a destination as well. It was serene, charming, barely commercial, and incredibly picturesque.

    Our family of two adults, a 9 year old and a 6 year old visited the park for the traditional flower market at Chinese New Year.

    We took the tram from Pedder Street in Central (see my separate review) to Causeway Bay and joined the masses heading for the flower market.

    The park is the size of a football pitch and though the market was busy, we enjoyed walking around. Being Brits, we took time to pay homage to the statue of Queen Victoria. Enjoy!
