At the Chi Lin Nunnery. The wooden buildings are constructed using an interlocking system without nails.
Peaceful ponds with floating water lilies calm the soul.
Near the monastery is the immaculately landscaped Nan Lian Garden.
Despite a fear of heights, I took the Ngong Ping cable car to Lantau Island.

Thanks. Incredible trip.
I was in Hong Kong this summer and your pictures made me super nostalgic! Did you see the wild cows on Lantu Island?
No i didn’t see the cows! Darn.
They were wild. I have never seen cows like that. Maybe next time 🙂
Oh, take me there! I’ve always found Asian architecture and sculpture to be fascinating. Even looking at your photos I can feel the serenity!
It was an oasis in the middle of a very busy city.
