“The next challenge was the seemingly endless staircase leading up to the Tian Tan Buddha. Each step brought me closer to the massive bronze statue, yet also further winded me. Finally, panting slightly, I reached the top. The Buddha was magnificent, a serene figure radiating peace and tranquility. Further, the view from up there was breathtaking, a panorama of Lantau Island’s lush green hills and the sparkling blue sea below.”
