HONGKONG ATTRACTION: NGONG PING 360 CABLE CAR
Contents
Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car is one of the tourist attractions in the entire Hongkong. With its total length of 5.7 kilometers bi-cable ropeway, it is the first ever attraction with this kind of experience in this place. The journey of riding this cable car begins from Tung Chung going to North Lantau. The 25-minutes ride provides the tourists the opportunity to see the scenic view of Hongkong City as well as the other places such as Hong Kong International Airport, Terrains of Lantau Island, Tian Tan Buddha and the 360-degree view of Ngong Ping Plateau. All in all, the views it offers are far from the usual perspective that you can get to see in a typical high-place position. The experience itself provides a variety of comfort level allowing tourists to choose their preferred one.
Ngong Ping Cable Car is a spectacular 5.7km bi-cable ropeway linking Tung Chung (connected to the MTR Tung Chung station) and Ngong Ping (where the Po Lin Monastery and Tian Tan Buddha are located). The total journey time is between 24 to 30 minutes depending on the weather. Can you imagine taking the journey with your loved ones in the Cabin?
If you want to spend it in a standard, average, or generous way, this Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car got if covered for you. Here is the list:
• The Standard Cabin
This cabin is a good one for starter tourists since they can enjoy the advantage of viewing the scenes comfortably. You will get the chance to ride a standard cabin with standard features and amenities. This only costs HK$3,800, perfect for those who are on an average budget.
• Crystal Cabin
This cabin as the name itself is made transparent glass like crystal making it possible for tourists to see the city in a much clear and better angle or a lot would say a “Bird’s Eye view.” Enjoy the view of the sea and the grassland below your feet! This ride also gives an illusion that you are flying up above the places that you pass by. Though some would say that this feels like a little scary, the fact remains that it offers a good view of all the riders.
• Private Cabin
If you would like to share a particular moment with your family, friends, or loved ones, then I highly recommend that you try this type of cabin. This provides you a private and comfortable moment with your loved ones in a lavish way! This type of cabin costs HK$4,500, and it has the following features: priority boarding; roundtrip cable car ride; and free admission to the themed attractions in Walking with Buddha. Well, the cost that you are going to pay for this type of cabin is indeed worth it with all its equal privileges.
