The Glorious Tian Tan Buddha

The Tian Tan Buddha is located on Lantau Island in Hong Kong. A little bit away from city life the great Buddha sits atop a hill paved with steps and happens to be one of the most iconic buddhas in the world. Often featured in older cinema movies, the Buddha is a landmark one should visit while in Hong Kong. there are many shops leading up to the Buddha where one can buy food snacks and souvenirs. In these shops one can also buy offerings with which to burn and present. We happened to enjoy the sites despite being high up in the air because it was not so crowded. If you have time, visit the Tian Tan Buddha in Hong Kong. It’s a must see for a tourist. #hongkong #lantauisland #tiantanbuddha

Tian Tan Buddha

Exploring Hong Kong’s epic Tian Tan Buddha is a bucket-list moment for any traveler 🙌. Perched on Lantau Island and towering over lush mountains, this iconic statue is all about jaw-dropping views, spiritual vibes, and a little bit of stairway cardio. Must-See Spot: 🌄 Tian Tan Buddha Address: Ngong Ping Rd, Lantau Island, Hong Kong Opening Hours: 10:00–17:30 (open every day!) You’ll need to climb 268 steps to reach the Buddha itself—fair warning, but the scenic payoff at the top is absolutely worth it. The climb isn’t too intense and you can stop to admire the clouds, fog, and panoramic nature views surrounding the statue. Try visiting early in the day or right before closing to dodge tourist crowds and catch some dramatic weather shifts—one moment it’s sunny, the next it’s mysterious mist! Practical tips: – Wear comfy shoes for the climb. Those stairs are no joke! – Bring a lightweight jacket; the weather can change super fast, swinging from sunny to cloudy and rainy. – If you want peaceful vibes, time your visit for weekdays or early hours. – Great spot for close-up architecture shots! – You can grab vegetarian food from the nearby monastery—it’s tasty and cheap. Getting there: Hop on the MTR to Tung Chung station, then board the Ngong Ping 360 cable car for killer views (or take a local bus if you want to save cash).
