On the Island of Lantau in the South Asian Seas, tucked deep into the hills and accessible by the Ngong Ping Sky Rail lies the Buddah. The Biggest man-made outdoor Buddah sculpture in the world. Its kinda shocking and slightly weird. Such a tourist trap. And yet a religious symbol still?
Most interesting part:Po lin Monastary at the bottom, buddhist monks serve vegetarian meals to visitors for a small fee. The soup comes first and looks like hot dish water with a few bubbles..i found one piece of bamboo at the bottom and figured out that it was bamboo soup...then there's the veggies and meat flavored tofu, RICE, tea, fried egg rolls minus the egg and bok choy. the best is the chinese cafeteria type setting and NO PHOTOGRAPHY allowed. like something special is going on. secretive monks.
