I owe you a post for Saturday at the beach, etc. but for now, I am offering photos of today's trip to the big Buddha on Lantau Island. We had a vegetarian lunch at the monastery, saw the big Buddha, and then hiked back to the city. The monastery is quite unusual in that it seeks to attract tourists; they were in the process of building a larger and more impressive temple. The lunch was tasty, and their restaurant could accommodate hundreds. The bicycle facilities were well-developed in this near-suburb.

The big Buddha is surrounded by these smaller vistales. I think they are gorgeous.
Small is beautiful -- the little altars are as lovely as the huge.
I took several pictures of the bicycle facilities at this edge of HK -- this is the one that make the cut.
