Lantau Attractions

What to See in Lantau

Po Lin Monastery

Lantau Island is a unique destination where the old and the new interact. Most parts are decidedly rural and as a result Lantau is a haven for hikers and trekkers, many heading up Lantau Peak (the highest mountain on the island) rising more than 900 metres.

On top of that, Lantau is home to Hong Kong Disneyland, the Ngong Ping 360 cable car ride, the famous Giant Buddha (aka the Tian Tan Buddha Statue) and Tai O traditional fishing village.

Other Attractions in Lantau

Chinese White Dolphin

Dolphin Watching

Lantau Island is home of humpback or white dolphins (sometimes called pink dolphins by the locals because of their ambiguous hue – and to complicate matters further they're actually born grey.) Dolphin Watching is a unique way to get to know these fascinating creatures and to share time with family and friends.

Location: North Lantau
Tour Available: Lantau Island Tour

Tai O Fishing Village

Tai O Fishing Village

Tai O Village is a must-visit place for those who enjoy observing traditional Chinese ways. It is an old fishing village that has managed to keep a big part of their traditional ways of rural life alive. Most houses are stilt homes by the water and there are many people who still live aboard their boats. The village is made up of small alleys and paths with a village market, several souvenir shops and a few museums (exhibiting very interesting traditional household items, fishing equipment and antique clothing.) There are also good and cheap restaurants in the village. Location: Northwestern coast of Lantau Island, about 45 minutes to an hour-long bus ride from Mui Wo Ferry Pier (aka Silvermine Bay).
