Just west of Hong Kong island is Lantau island, home to Ngong Ping, a park? area? Not sure what Ngong Ping refers to but it’s host to the Tian Tan Buddha, a 34 meter tall buddha statue. There’s a cable car starting from Tung Chung on Lantau island that crosses some amazing hills where you can see the Buddha from the distance along with the artificial island of Hong Kong airport.
