Magic Hour in Lantau Peak
To climb up to Lantau Peak, you have to start from the third section of the Lantau Peak Trail, which is mainly stone level, but the slope is high, and you need to climb from more than 300 meters above sea level to the top of the mountain of 934 meters, it is best to bring enough water and food to replenish physical strength. Once you climb to the top, you can see the mist and mountain peaks, and the sunset is even more charming. There is no lighting on the mountain road after entering the dark, so everyone should remember to bring a torch or headlamp.

Amazing sun rise in the Lantau Peak
We reached the top of the mountain before 7:00 in the morning, and there were already more than 20 people waiting for the sunrise on the top of the mountain. We waited for about half an hour to see the soft morning light rising on the horizon, and then the orange sun slowly rising from behind the clouds. We were really lucky that day and saw a beautiful sunrise. Even if there was no sea of clouds, we were all satisfied. What impressed us about this sunrise trip was also the strong winds of Lantau Peak. In winter, you should also pay attention to keeping warm when going up the mountain. It is fine before sunrise, but the icy cold wind rises with the sunrise. It is enough to wear down and a wind jacket. Perhaps because of the freezing weather, most of the tourists had already left the top of the mountain shortly after sunrise, allowing us to take pictures on the top of the surprisingly few Lantau Peak before going down the mountain.

Snowing Season at Lantau
111 Ngong Ping Road, Lantau Island, Hong Kong
My first time travelling to Hong Kong enjoying the super cold weather of only 10 to 13 degrees at the lantau island. I am so impressed with the cold weather as we do not have such cold weather in Singapore. The place was so spooky and the floor can be very wet and slippery. I have to take each step with care as I almost slipped on a few occasions.
There were a few stalls along the way at Lantau island, serving food and snacks. The Starbucks at that area was on full house as many went in to have a cup of hot coffee and tea under the cold weather. It was really a brand new experience for me. I enjoyed such weather and look forward to it again in Hong Kong.
