Help, the sunset view from this panoramic cable car in Hong Kong is too beautiful

Longing for the trip to Hong Kong Finally realized with friends~ This time we dressed in Hanfu to check in Subvert the memory of Hong Kong dramas in the impression🤣 Be the most eye-catching package in all of Hong Kong . Actually, in addition to Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui and other retro buildings, Hong Kong also has a beautiful check-in point Don't miss the sunset on the panoramic cable car, the mountains and the sea under the sunset seem to be covered with a filter - Share my travel strategy transportation 🚇Subway Tung Chung Station Exit B, follow the sign, walk for 3 minutes to the cable car ticket entrance . 🎫Tickets Online tickets are cheaper, book online three days in advance, make an appointment one day in advance . 🚠Cable car There are three types in total, standard, crystal, panoramic, recommend panoramic or crystal cabins, unobstructed all-round view, better experience! The whole journey is 20 minutes✔️Travel route Crystal cable car (Tung Chung to Ngong Ping) one-Ngong Ping Market-Tian Tan Buddha-Po Lin Monastery-Heart Sutra Simplicity Forest-Panoramic Cable Car (Ngong Ping to Tung Chung) - 📷Recommended check-in position: 1️⃣Ngong Ping Market You can take photos with the cable car by the wall, or go to the other side to shoot the graffiti wall and the cable car, which is also very good . 2️⃣Po Lin Monastery, Ten Thousand Buddha Hall The architectural style of Po Lin Monastery and Ten Thousand Buddha Hall is very similar to the Forbidden City, and it is worthy of the name "Little Forbidden City". You can stand on the steps to shoot, you can sit and interact with friends, capture natural moments. You can also get close to the incense ash stove outside the hall, use the frame of the stove as the foreground, and take a centered composition to shoot the Daxiong Hall. This position is very advanced! . 3️⃣Tian Tan Buddha The location of "Infernal Affairs", if you don't want to take a rigid "Big Buddha", you can stand in the square at the foot of the mountain to take pictures with the Big Buddha . 4️⃣Heart Sutra Simplicity Forest The backlight shooting of the Heart Sutra Simplicity Forest at four or five o'clock is too beautiful! When the light penetrates the clothes and umbrella, the whole person is like glowing, very feeling! The Heart Sutra Simplicity Forest is a bit far away, and you can see the entrance after a 15-minute walk from the Po Lin Zen Room 5️⃣Panoramic Cable Car One of the top ten best cable cars in the world, 360° panoramic view without obstruction, you can see the mountains and seas under your feet, Lantau Island, Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and other scenery are unobstructed, you can sit down and let your buddies take a wide-angle shot for you! At sunset, the sun slowly sets, and watching the sunset on the cable car is simply too beautiful, don't miss it! ⚠️Shooting tips: 1. The entire route is very rich, suitable for a day trip, there are many snacks in the Ngong Ping Market, 2. Check in with Hanfu, the photos are very good, and the scene is more harmonious! 3. Cable car operation time: 10:00-18:00

Tian Tan Buddha

Exploring Hong Kong’s epic Tian Tan Buddha is a bucket-list moment for any traveler 🙌. Perched on Lantau Island and towering over lush mountains, this iconic statue is all about jaw-dropping views, spiritual vibes, and a little bit of stairway cardio. Must-See Spot: 🌄 Tian Tan Buddha Address: Ngong Ping Rd, Lantau Island, Hong Kong Opening Hours: 10:00–17:30 (open every day!) You’ll need to climb 268 steps to reach the Buddha itself—fair warning, but the scenic payoff at the top is absolutely worth it. The climb isn’t too intense and you can stop to admire the clouds, fog, and panoramic nature views surrounding the statue. Try visiting early in the day or right before closing to dodge tourist crowds and catch some dramatic weather shifts—one moment it’s sunny, the next it’s mysterious mist! Practical tips: – Wear comfy shoes for the climb. Those stairs are no joke! – Bring a lightweight jacket; the weather can change super fast, swinging from sunny to cloudy and rainy. – If you want peaceful vibes, time your visit for weekdays or early hours. – Great spot for close-up architecture shots! – You can grab vegetarian food from the nearby monastery—it’s tasty and cheap. Getting there: Hop on the MTR to Tung Chung station, then board the Ngong Ping 360 cable car for killer views (or take a local bus if you want to save cash).
