Lantau Island is twice as big as Hong Kong Island but far less densely populated. The government decided that it was time to enliven Lantau and made plans for a major airport that was finished in 1998. These days, it is very easily accessible by both ferry (nice trip!) and plane. The airport was only the beginning of the island's metamorphosis.
An old monastery and the enormous Buddha (the largest outdoor Buddha in the world) sits amidst tea plantations and green mountain peaks.
The older sites such has the monastery have to compete with modern inventions such as Waterworld, Science City, a theme park dedicated to Chinese customs, and Hong Kong Disneyland.
