hi Tjs!
The answer is:Giant Buddha The Giant Buddha gazing serenely on the Po Lin (Precious Lotus) Monastery from its hillside site at Ngong Ping on Lantau Island. The Buddha sits on a lotus throne on top of a three platform altar and is reached by walking up 268 steps.
I think getting there to count the steps by yourselves and viewing the buddha is spectacularly cool and amazing trip.
How to get there: 1)Take a ferry to Silvermine Bay (Mui Wo) from the Central Pier, and Bus No 2 to Po Lin. 2)Take the MTR to Tung Chung station, and Bus No 23.
cheers, fung

Well done, TJs, that is the right answer, and the prize for all of you is the chance to spend a day at the home of the Giant Buddha, Lantau Island and come face-to-face with the Buddha. There are other treats in store at the island, all brought to you by Hong Kong Tourism Board. It will be a most “enlightening” journey! Good luck!
