Ma On Shan Ngong Ping Viewing Point | Hong Kong's "Altay" Alpine Meadow

| Hong Kong's "Altay" Alpine Meadow. 📍 Ma On Shan Ngong Ping Viewing Point | Hong Kong's "Altay" Alpine Meadow ✨ Highlights: ✔ Alpine meadow + stunning views - known as "Hong Kong's Altay," a 400-meter high-altitude plain with 360° overlooking Sai Kung and the peaks of Ma On Shan. ✔ Paragliding mecca - you can often see paragliders soaring in the sky against a backdrop of rolling mountains, a truly breathtaking scene. ✔ Beginner-friendly hike - 1-hour climb to the top, along stone steps and dirt roads, suitable for light hikers. 📌 Tips: Best time: Early morning (high chance of sea of clouds) or evening (sunset + city lights gradually brighten). Transportation: Taxi from Ma On Shan Station to the "Ma On Shan Country Park" starting point (about HKD 50), or take village bus No. NR84. Hidden photo spot: The giant rock on the right side of the viewing platform is less crowded and offers layered views of the grassland and the sea. Note: Some sections of the trail can be muddy after rain, so it is recommended to wear non-slip hiking shoes (such as GORE-TEX material).
