A big, heavy Buddha

A big, heavy Buddha - photos from China

© Bartłomiej Magierowski

Do you remember this Buddha? In one of the Van Damme films, he flew into the air. They lied, as usual in China. I was there a year ago, he still stands there and greets tourists with his hand. It's called Polin, to visit it you need to devote a whole day to it (around the airport), Lantou island, I recommend it. Imagine that some people go up the mountain on their knees. I barely climbed up there, and on my knees... I think I would have converted to Christianity if I had been a follower of Buddhism rather than going in there like that.

Święty Boże (Buddo?), jak jesteś Na Lantau to nie jedź do Po Lin. Pójdź w góry (byle nie latem). Polecam sunset Peak - 869 metrów nad wodą , widok na lotnisko i cisza i spokój... Oj, wiele godzin tam przesiedzialem... Lantau to spokój w HK.
