Round the World, Travel

Ngong Ping 360

November 12, 2010

At the top of the cable car is a little village with outdoor entertainment, nice souvenir shops (not the standard souvenir shop crap), cafes, a multi-media history of Buddha, a monestary, a roaming animal or two and what is believed to be the highest Buddha statue in the world.  There are also walking trails.  Plenty to do for a nice day out of the hustle and bustle of the city.

Parkour Show – Parkour is the movement from one point to another 
as quickly and efficiently as possible.  It helps to be limber.  And young.  And fast.
