The World’s Largest Bronze Buddha Statue
To go to Ngong Ping can use the buses could use the Cable Car. Well before those of us who do not live on the island of Lantau, search first major MTR Tung Chung Station, then follow the flow of exit B and can ride bus number 23 from Tung Chung Town Centre or directly up the Ngong Ping Cable Car at a cost 107 HKD per person. It is recommended to better use the Cable Car than the bus. There are many reasons why this is so anyway, such is the experience of cable car ride with a route that is 5.7 km far away across some of the mountains and the sea. Travel over 25 minutes even this will not seem long because of the very beautiful scenery, from here we can see the airport as well.
Those who would like extreme circumstances also provided a cable car underneath the glass, so you can both look down. Ngong Ping area is also often used for camping, so do not be surprised if suddenly you see that there are some people walking down there. To be able to ride the cable car, we had to queue for about 30 minutes more, maybe even can be called almost an hour. But it all paid back with the exhaustion of the scenic cable car.
Cable car is open at 10 am and closes at 6 pm. On the week end or public holidays, it opens from 9.30 to close at 18:30. My advice, should you depart from the morning, because a lot of interesting places to visit here and will return no rush.
Giant Buddha Statue
34-meter-high statue of Buddha weighing 250 tons was made over 10 years and only opened in 1993. Since opening, this place is often used as a place to hold a religious ceremony for Buddhists in Hong Kong. Well, but the cable car does not directly lead us there. The first place we visited was the Ngong Ping Villages. Here a lot of souvenirs and food vendors. Ranging from severe to snack foods are a lot of nights we meet in the Indonesian market is spun sugar. Wow, with prices 20 HKD one queue for food was long enough. Before you can reach the Buddha, we have to climb the 268 steps of stairs. Up above, there are six statues that surrounded the Buddha. Maybe this is the story they bring offerings to the Buddha, because it all leads to the Buddha while carrying something. Beneath the statue of Buddha there are unique and souvenir shop also displays photos around the room. Photo images are photos of people who have died but have contributed to the development of this Big Buddha. Satisfied around the statue of Buddha, under the stairs there is a kind of floor that leads directly to the statues of Buddha, a place where people submit a prayer to Buddha. Interestingly, if we stand right above the circle, so if we talk would sound like echoes in our ears. That’s why this place called the Buddha heard. Afternoon atmosphere here is also very beautiful. Surrounded by green mountains, clouds covered the mountain would be too slow.
Between India and South Africa
Located about 25 miles north of downtown Durban, South Africa. One is the legacy of nonviolence movement fighter, Mahatma Gandhi, another legacy of the Reverend Dr John Langalibalele Dube, the first President of the African National Congress. Each other and there is two kilometers thread that binds: empowering communities to live independently.
Mr. President, I come to report to you that South Africa is now free.
Phoenix Settlement is 40 hectares of agricultural land occupied by Gandhi and her family since 1904. A place that is remembered Gandhi’s grandson, Sita, as “a very beautiful place and not enforce the racial laws.”
In the agricultural area that is surrounded by sugarcane plantations, Gandhi’s teachings run Satyagraha (passive resistance), which became the basis of justice movement, peace and equality. In this communal experiment of life of every family gaining ground more than 8000 square meters for propagation. The result, that community can meet all the needs of their own, such as milk, food, butter, until ghee, and melted butter Indian.
Meanwhile, the Ohlange Institute in Inanda, which was originally known as the Industrial Institute Ohlange Native-founded Dube, three years before Gandhi occupies the independent of agriculture. His goal from the beginning is to make the people to be able to stand on their own.
Academic ability, according to Dube, who is strongly influenced by Booker T Washington, the founder of Tuskegee Institute of Alabama, which applies the concept of education for black citizens of the United States, must be balanced with the practical skills of the industry. Pupils were taught to make shoes, shirts, master mechanic motor, agriculture, and even journalism. No lag, which emphasized Dube-blacks-Zulu origin, is the formation of character.
