Programme Highlights
Ngong
Ping 360 is a tourist experience based on a bi-cable gondola lift
running between Tung Chung MTR station and the Ngong Ping village,
located next to the Tian Tan Buddha and the Po Lin Monastery. The
village and monastery are around 450m above sea level in the mountains
of Lantau Island. The cable car system provides an alternative to a long
bus journey to get to the tourist attractions.
The
cable car route extends from Tung Chung to Chek Lap Kok island before
turning 60 degrees to line up for the lift to the hill top. There are 8
cable support towers along the 5.7 km route and the section from Chek
Lap Kok to the following support tower is the longest stretch of cable
system located over water in the world, for this type of cable car. The
journey takes around 25 minutes of stunning panoramic views over Lantau
Island and the South China Sea.
The
cable car operation is mechanical in nature, although there are
substantial numbers of sensors built in to the system to warn the
operators of any problems. This makes for a fascinating exploration of
the cable track and system, all easily visible at the stations and in
the cable car parking garage, which you will get to visit.
