The Ngong Ping 360 experience starts with a 25 minute cable car ride from Tung Chung to a culturally themed village high atop a mountain plateau on Lantau Island. It's here at the Ngong Ping Village, that your family can enjoy three great attractions and a choice of shops and eateries, all on this picturesque 1.5-hectare site.
Your journey of discovery begins with the Walking with Buddha multimedia facility that takes you through the life of Siddhartha Gautama - the man who became Buddha - and his path to enlightenment. Travelling through the various stages of Siddhartha's life, you will witness his transition from being a Prince at Court to reaching supreme awareness and becoming Buddha. You will also be enlightened as to the essence of Buddha's teachings through a variety of themed scenes and activities.
The Monkey's Tale Theatre presents a charming and comical 'show' inspired by the famous Buddhist Jataka stories. Set in a magical courtyard under the branches of a majestic Bodhi Tree, this story will engage and inspire guests of all ages. Computer generated animation, combined with special effects and surround sound, will engage your senses and immerse you in the 'monkey's tale'. Be amused by the antics of the three monkey friends, as they travel on a journey of greed, gluttony and friendship.
More discoveries are in store at the Ngong Ping Tea House, which provides regular demonstrations of traditional Chinese tea ceremonies, as well as offering a selection of fine teas and cakes. Set amongst beautifully landscaped gardens, this will be the world's first interactive, multimedia teahouse. This unique attraction features professional Chinese tea masters who conduct the tea ceremonies and explain the ancient history of tea and its development over the ages.
