We enjoyed the experience at Ngong Ping and the Large Buddha, and the scenery. However, even though we bought our tickets in advance we had to wait another hour plus, to exchange them to be able to ride the gondola. We rode the crystal gondola up and the standard one down. The crystal one is fun with a glass sides and floor. Only having the standard one down was not a bad deal, except that there was a huge hot line to stand in, as opposed to the crystal line, to board the gondolas.

    Really very nice with the Crystal cabin, but there is another form of enhancement that is also advertised, which you can see in the pictures: this is a Crystal Plus. Here you only have a Crystal cabin, it is not fully glazed. You also need to be aware that, unlike in the advertising images, you won't be alone in the cabin, but will have to share it with at least four other people. Nevertheless, it's a great experience. Whether you have to have it on both routes is something everyone has to decide for themselves. I see potential for savings there. Apart from that, I would say that the Buddha is really worth seeing, but it is also quite exhausting to get to the top at 35°. I can't recommend the fishing village at all, the boat tour that is offered there for little money takes a long time. Half of it takes 20 minutes through the village itself and we didn't see any dolphins. The fishing village is not particularly attractive in my opinion, of course you can buy dried fish or small souvenirs there, but to be honest we were not convinced. You can take the public bus, but this is only available every hour. Regarding the booking itself, I was very surprised and suspicious that you don't get a QR code. You only get a booking number and you have to use it to go to the ticket office and get your tickets there. Because there are so many platforms that sell fake tickets, I wasn't quite so convinced. But in this case it worked.

    Was just ok. Ngong Ping itself is decent (well the big Buddha is) but apart from that it's just an ok attraction.
