Tian Tan Buddha

At over 250 tonnes and {{m|34}} in height, this was the largest seated outdoor bronze Buddha statue in the world, until the statue of Dordenna Buddha near Thimphu in Bhutan was finished in 2015. The site also offers unobstructed views over the island. Access to the Buddha is free, although entering the museum inside during busy times requires a meal ticket for the vegetarian restaurant; a snack costs $23 while full meals are $60 (normal) or $100 (deluxe). Less direct alternatives to the cable car are bus #2 from Mui Wo ferry pier or bus #23 from Tung Chung (both $17.20/27 on weekdays/Sundays).
