[2025 Hong Kong Restaurant] Travel Guide for Po Lin Monastery Restaurant (Updated Nov)

I've been too tired from work lately, so I decided to walk back to the Great Buddha and eat fast at Po Lin Zen Temple to absorb some spiritual energy. The Great Buddha is under maintenance, but now you can go up and visit it. 📍Po Lin Zen Temple Located on the left hand side of the Grand Hall, the restaurant is decorated in Chinese style and has a quiet and elegant environment. Zhenwei Vegetarian $110/person VIP All $150/person ⭐️ Ancient Pharaoh Soup - The day was carrot broccoli soup, with the taste of home, the point is that you can unlimited refill👍 ⭐️ Crispy fried spring rolls - small spring rolls are delicious, crispy crust, wrapped full of vegetables, not too greasy, but the big spring rolls are rather oily, we eat all the carrot threads inside even 😅 ⭐️ Mushroom steak seasonal vegetables, green Ruyi stir-fry - enough portion, mushroom soft. ⭐️ Lemon Fresh Bamboo Slices - Sweet and sour appetizing, crispy outside, fresh bamboo inside, very good! ⭐️ Fried taro - Because I wanted to eat, I ordered 2 pieces Friendly staff, this is a good choice for vegetarian☺️ #localtour #foodie #I miss

Hong Kong’s Lantau Island in autumn is pure bliss 🍂 — think dramatic Chinese architecture, lush mountains, and fresh air just one cable car ride away! The coolest part was soaking up tranquility at the Po Lin Monastery and wandering sunlit plazas packed with culture and photo ops. Top Spots to Visit: 1. Po Lin Monastery The heart of Ngong Ping, open 09:00–18:00, serves up iconic Buddhist vibes and stunning architecture. Pro tip: Early mornings mean less crowds and softer light for photos! 2. Worship Plaza Right in front of the Monastery, a peaceful space for reflection and capturing group shots with epic backgrounds. Don’t rush — the atmosphere’s relaxing. 3. Ngong Ping Piazza Open 09:00–17:00 and basically made for strolling, it’s flanked by statues, gateways, and views of rolling hills. Autumn here is especially gorgeous — mild, breezy, and sometimes misty for an extra magical touch. 4. Ngong Ping Take the cable car up for sweeping mountain and sea panoramas. Pack layers: weather can flip between sunny, cloudy, and a moody drizzle in the same afternoon! Food Tip: Hit the Po Lin Monastery Restaurant (inside the monastery, Ngong Ping Road). Vegetarian set menus are super tasty and wallet-friendly — try the fried bean curd or lotus seed dessert. Getting Around: The Ngong Ping 360 cable car gets you up the mountain quickly (book ahead via trip.com for discounts). Most sights are a short walk from each other once you arrive. Extra Tips: Bring a rechargeable Octopus Card for smooth travel, and don’t forget a light rain jacket just in case. Autumn’s cooler temps make for the perfect outdoor day! #HongKong #NgongPing360 #AutumnInAsia #LantauIsland #falladventures

On my birthday this year, I took the Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car with my friend. My friend used a summer student ticket, which was a bigger discount than the other people traveling with him. We also got coupons to eat at Ngong Ping Market. We went to Subway, and we got a cookie with the coupons~ After dinner, we worshipped the Big Buddha and ate tofu pudding at Po Lin Monastery I recommend everyone to go there on their birthdays 📍Address: Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car, Tung Chung, Hong Kong

#springgoodplace2024 On this day, I came to Ngong Ping to pay homage to the Big Buddha, and for lunch I tried vegetarian food at the Po Lin Temple at the foot of the mountain. They offer a vegetarian set menu for $150 per person, which includes crispy spring rolls, fried green ruyi, grilled mushrooms, lemon and fresh bamboo slices and soup, as well as a large bowl of white rice. Both of us thought everything was delicious and the portions were large, so we left with full stomachs. What’s particularly surprising is the spring rolls. Although they don’t contain meat, they can be made with only vegetables, rich in flavor, crispy and delicious. #relaxation #trip #天 Tan大佛 #Pauline Temple #vegetarian food
