The birthday of Lord Buddha is a celebration of great reverence in Hong Kong's Buddhist temples.

Worshippers show their devotion throughout the day by bathing Buddha's statue. Celebrations centre round the major monasteries in Hong Kong. Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island, home to the world's largest, seated, outdoor bronze Buddha, is one of hubs of activity at this time. Enjoy sumptuous Chinese vegetarian dishes at Po Lin Monastery; observe the ceremonies at some other monasteries.
