You can just barely see the people on the hand of this Buddha which is built into the side of an entire mountain. I believe it is one of the largest in the world--if not the largest.
Terry just loves walking on the suspension bridge. Almost as much as riding the gondolas. I miss my pugs so I had to find some new friends.....not quite as cuddly and a little heavy to bring home.
We spent a night and day in Shenzhen located very near Hong Kong. They have a folk cultural village there that was patterned after the Polynesian Culture Center in Hawaii. One side is minority villages with homes, shows, traditional costume and crafts and the other is an incredible "miniature China." All the famous landmarks in China are represented in miniature, including "The Great Wall," "the Hanging Temple," famous Buddhas, etc. It was fascinating and we could have spent much longer there. We saw a Mongolian battle on horseback, a Tibetan show and a Muslim celebration. That evening we were treated to back to back night shows. The costumes, acrobatics and special stage affects were wonderful.
