4.00Lantau Island is a great escape from the city. Tai O Village and Po Lin Monastery were awesome. The only drawback to this trip was the excessive lines waiting for the cable cars.
Lantau Cable Skip the Line.

5.00First thing, if you’re going to take the Cable Car to the Big Buddha it pays to buy a tour just for the skip the line part. The tour companies provide special tickets, either one way or return. Along with those tickets comes a special line that gets you to the front of the very very long regular ticket line. We bought the Crystal Cabin with the glass floor. It’s a little freaky at first but within a few minutes I got used to it. We didn’t have a private cabin and had to share with 2 moms and 4 very loud kids! 25 minutes and no escape. The ride to the top and Big Buddha would’ve been more amazing if the mountain and Lantau Island hadn’t been covered with smog. The Village is basically gift shops and fast food like Subway (the American Company) and some Chinese fast food. The walk from the Cable Car to the Big Buddha is loooooong. Keep hydrated and stay cool. It’s hot up there. We also went to Tai-O village by boat to see the fishing houses on stilts which was worth the visit. Everywhere you go is a long walk. Don’t forget that you need to take a bus from the top of the mountain to Tai-O.
