Hong Kong - February 2010

Po Lin Monastery.
The Po Lin Monastery giant buddha. The movie Family Stone discusses a visit to this monastery and giant buddha.

This thing was massive. It was almost a hundred feet high. It is the largest seated outdoor buddha in the world. And if faces Beijing instead of India, as buddha's generally do, because the Chinese government apparently funded it's building in 1989.
Looking down on some of the high rises on Lantau island near the International Airport as we go up on the cable car.
