As we headed up to Lantau Island in the cable car, we watched people struggle climbing the steps in the heat…

The humidity in Hong Kong in the summer is no joke!

We still had to climb steps though, however, when the Hong Kong Big Buddha appeared on the hill, it was definitely worth the hard work.

As I walked around the awesome wooden structure, I couldn’t believe that the intricate carvings were all hand made.

Some amazing Thai craftmanship on display!

The Sanctuary of Truth Pattaya is a stunning temple located in Thailand that is a must-visit for anyone travelling to the area. It makes for an interesting day trip from Pattaya and Bangkok, with it being within a couple of hours of the Thai capital.
