That's a big buddha

Sunday I managed another tourist attraction: the big buddha! Though it's not very historical because it was recently built, it is a very impressive statue in a nice environment surrounded by beautiful mountains! We took the Metro and than Bus No.21 up to the peak it costs 25HK$. The cable car was an alternative but queueing for an hour, we considered not to be worth it. From Big Buddha we took another bus down to Tai O village - quiet a change compared to Hong Kong.It's a real village, sadly enough it's very poor but it's buildings on pillars are realy nice, a local told me they call it: little Venice. But no worries, the first skyscrapers are already under construction and in a few years little of the village will remain!
