Day 45 – Hong Kong


We start our last full day with a train and bus ride out to the peak of Lantau Island and a visit to the largest seated Budda in the world – not impressed with that are you? Being a functioning temple they have lots of tourist tat on offer including incense sticks the size of light-sabers, what I would have done for one of those last night.

We take a fantastic 30-minute cable car ride back down (which seemed an easier option than the 7-hour hike) and spend the afternoon in the manic crowds of the central markets.
