With a 360 degree view of Lantau the Tian Tan giant bronze Buddha sits watching out over the mountains and to the ocean. The stone steps lead up to the impressive 250 ton statue 34 meters tall. Surround Buddha are 6 other intricate stone statues presenting offerings such as music towards the Buddha. At the base of the Buddha is the Po Lin Monastery, adorned with vibrant flowers and incense filling the air with fragrant aromas. The entire scene with the mountains, statues and temples in the morning air long before the tour buses start arriving is simply majestic.
