Breathtaking Views from Skyrail Cable Car, Lantau Island, Hong Kong (DON'T MISS THE ENDING)

Skyrail Cable Car or Ngong Ping Cable Car is a visually spectacular 5.7 kilometer long bi-cable ropeway between Tung Chung and Ngong Ping in north Lantau Island, Hong Kong. We took the cable car for our return journey from Lantau Island to Hong Kong. It was a descent from Ngong Ping plateau to the sea-level and the journey took 25 minutes. The views were truly spectacular. We passed through hills and valleys, saw the Tian Tan Buddha Statue at a distance, then saw the busy Hong Kong International airport with planes taking off and landing. Then we rode over the Tung Chung Bay with the Hong Kong skyscrapers visible below us and the South China Sea visible at a distance. The views towards the end of our journey were absolutely breathtaking. I would strongly recommend this cable car trip or gondola ride to anybody visiting Hong Kong S.A.R. Make sure you watch the entire video to enjoy all the views.

CORRECTION: In the video, I have incorrectly identified the airport we were passing by as "Pudong International Airport". It is actually Hong Kong International Airport. Sorry about that. "Pudong" airport is in Shanghai, China.
