Big Buddha

They say the third times the charm and in this case it was true. Can you believe it? I'd tried twice before to go to the big buddha, only to be met with massive crowds! But mama was in town, i presumably had the lucky number and so there was no stopping me.  We took the cable cars and after the initial fear of plummeting to our deaths, the trip offered spectacular views with anticipation over each mountain we passed leading to the buddha.

Little Buddha on the left

This has got to be one of my most favourite things I've done in Hong Kong. Once you pass the tourist built village you are greeted with various statues, beautiful temples, and of course the stairs to the main event- Tian Tan Buddha. We went on a chilly, slightly cloudy day but I feel like there's no bad day to see this, as the weather offers various dramatic backdrops for the Buddha. Go check it outttt!

Had a bit of a jumping photo obsession that day
